Huh. Cool stuff. Today I tee-totally learned something new.

Fair enough I can see that.

The difference between soda is very noticeable to me. Some store-brand sodas taste almost flat.

I can't tell much a difference between wines of the same type. They taste slightly different, but I can't say which taste "better."

Cheap liquor seems "harsher" than more expensive liquor; even with vodka, which doesn't really have a taste. The difference in taste of say, the regular Jim Beam and a barrel-proof bourbon is pretty noticeable.

I've noticed no difference in 100% fruit juice by brand. Well, except for orange juice.

Tea quality is very noticeable to me, but I'm a heavy tea drinker.

Even different water brands have different tastes. But, as long as it's not my tap water (which is very hard and smells like a swimming pool), I don't really care.

For me it was kind of the opposite. I care less about getting shit faced and more about flavours. Getting buzzed is just a pleasant side effect.

I make beer, and I take suggestions of friends of different styles (if left to my taste it would be English and Irish ales, and heavily hopped pale ales)

I am disappointed when people suggest "something like VB?" (Victoria Bitter is a mass market beer tuned to be inoffensive. It's boring.)

Beer drinkers are as bad as wine drinkers for being fussy
