For reference, she HATED beer when we first met, because she had basically only tried Bud and shit like that. Guinness was how I introduced her to good beer, and stouts have always been her favorite, but she's never really been into the extreme beers, i.e. imperials, dubbels, tripels, etc. But it was cold out and she asked me to order her a good stout. I ordered her a Founders Breakfast Stout, and I got the BCBS. She ended up loving both beers, and now I'm psyched because I can start getting her to try a bunch of the other Russian Imperials and stuff like that.
My girlfriends the same way. I started dating her and she didn't like beer. Now she loves sours, sweeter beers (stouts, porters, etc), and other ones that she wouldn't have touched with a 40ft pole before I met her. She doesn't like bitter beers such as IPA's so much, and the boozier beers I end up drinking more of, but she still at least try's all the beers I get. It's been fun haha!
Got some Celebration and a Lucky Bastard for tonight. Celebration is so fucking good its almost criminal.
That's awesome Bigchief.
My fiancee was the same, didn't like a lot of beer when we met, and then she got more adventurous as we dated. She's not big on a lot of IPAs/APAs but she likes the super aromatic, tropical ones like Zombie Dust. But she LOVES sours and brett beers now, stuff like Wicked Weed and Prairie are her jam.
I need to get my hands on some Celebration this year. It's always so good.
