#girls who like beer

It’s always nice when I pour myself a beer and taste it, and realize that I really do like beer. I genuinely enjoy it.

I tend to worry that maybe I like beer or want to brew because of some weird trick of the mind, like I’m trying to defy some social or gender thing, but that isn’t actually the case. I really enjoy beer as a beverage.

I feel like it’s easy to doubt myself about beer for a lot of reasons – it’s bitter and I normally like sweet; it’s a very “masculine” beverage and I’m a girl; and even when guys drink beer, lots of people tend to favor less flavorful beers, and only drink for the alcohol or the custom of it.

But when I pour a beer, all alone, and I can enjoy its color and its smell, and its flavor, I remember that I really do like beer, and I stop worrying. I like beer, and it has nothing to do with being a girl or anything else. I just think beer is nice. I like that.
