What I find odd, is that I've gone through cider, beer, lager and Guinness as favourite drink.
And each time, I've preferred the drink that I was drinking at the time. It seems like if you drink something regularly for a while, it puts you off the others.

Now I drink Guinness, I don't fancy Cider. Or Lager. Or bitter.
You would think I would fancy all of them, all having been my favourites at times.

But no, I don't fancy lager or bitter or cider. And yet, I like them.
I ordered Guinness at a usual bar a while ago, but they had sold out. So I reluctantly had a bitter.
I liked it, I was actually really surprised. Yet I still went back to Guinness next time.

It seems like they put something in drinks, to make you want that one again and again.
It doesn't make you like it any more, it just makes you fancy it more. Cocaine, probably.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.
