No, that was easy But with beer... what else could I drink when I
was 15/16 on a night out? Wine was hard to like too. I tried
whiskey/coke, rum/chocolate milk, gin/tonic, but that was all very
expensive compared to a glass of Heineken. It took many beers before
it didn't taste like a squeezed out wash cloth anymore.
