                                According to a 2013 study from the Indiana University School of Medicine, the taste of beer alone can trigger a dopamine release in the brain, suggesting a physiological basis for its eventual appeal. This means that while your first impression may have been bitter or unpleasant, you can absolutely learn to appreciate and develop a taste for beer over time.
