It is a pity that I hate the taste of beer, as there would be so many different kinds to try out...

Try a lager, like Ratsherren Hamburg Lager. It's beer for people who do not like beer (source: I do not like beer but most lagers). If you like it sweet you could also try porters, like Lausitzer Porter but that stuff is sweet af.

Sours are also great for people who don't like beer as much but like sour tasting drinks and food.

Thanks for the recommendations!

Porters do sound interesting, I will try one eventually.

Liking beer's taste is a Stockholm syndrome. Never have I ever met a person who has liked beer's taste at first. But when you're young and don't have a lot of money, beer is the cheapest alcoholic beverage so you're almost forced to drink that in some point.

Then after a while you start to "like" the taste and soon you're like "this is good" but you're still lying to yourself until one day you really start to like it.

Then you start to try different beers and they taste different to each other but they really aren't as good tasting as good ciders or long drinks, but you keep on drinking and tasting.

So just keep on trying to like the taste and some day you might.

I've always liked beer. Prefer it to long drinks and ciders too.
