I will brew everything except non-alcoholic beer.
It's not really beer, but I don't see myself ever wanting to make kvass

Add another one to the list. And I'm the one who started the thread! But since that time, I have fallen in love with IPAs. I've now even brewed a few IPAs and a DIPA. So much for "I'll never."
Wheat beer, just not a fan.
Also, anything with fruit in it. I've never had a fruit beer that I've enjoyed.
Orange ale changed my world.
8lbs 2 row
2 lbs pilsen
1 lb crystal 20
1/2 oz glacier 60 minutes
whole peel of 1 tangerine last 10 minutes of boil
yeast
DELICIOUS.
Gluten free is a style that I will never brew; every sorghum beer that I have tasted was, in my opinion, a drain poor.
I won't say I'll never brew them, but stouts are at the very bottom of my list to brew. I haven't found a stout I've enjoyed, but it has been about 15 years since I've last tried so might give them another go eventually. If I end up liking them I'll probably brew them; stranger things have happened like I'm now addicted to black licorice.
Most people (unfortunately) use Guinness as the standard
If you like coffee, then you probably like a real stout.
Stay away from nitro taps and try a solid middle of the road one, like schlafly coffe stout or oatmeal stout.
There are a ton of good ones.

I had an Espresso Stout sampler once. It was on Nitro though. The flavors were pretty good. I'd have to try them side by side to tell the difference between C02 and N02 carbonation.
What made them so bad? I'm curious because I have a buttload of sorghum a friend gave me to try out

cheezydemon3 said:HA! Another "I'll never" reneger!!!! Making an american light lager as we speak........DAMMIT! I have developed a slight penchant for Miller Lite with a fresh slice of lime in it. Long story, but strange coincidences and making the best of bad situations has made me put fresh slices of lime in um......plain tasting beer. FWIW, if nothing else, NEVER buy corona again. Miller with a lime is better, cheaper.
I do not like the base flavor. Maybe if it was made into an IPA the aggressive hops would cover it up. Might be worth a try.
I can't see myself ever brewing a lager. I would rather go thirsty than drink a Bud. I had been a pretty big fan of Sam Adams for years, but not any more. Anything that even resembles a lager tastes like shi*. Oh, yea I meant Bud. I hope my taste for Kolsch beers and Bocks aren't ruined.
Don't let Revvy hear ya!
I said the same thing, but I have made 2.
Revvy swears by his Vienna Lager. I need to try it.
FWIW I still really dig SA.

This is just insane! Lagers don't have to be **** American lagers! German lagers are hard to beat, oh man...
And besides, brewing lager is a step up from brewing ale. So much more skill involved in brewing a great lager.
It's not for lack of trying, it's just not my thing. For some reason when I taste fruit in a beer, it just tastes fake to me. Like someone dropped a life saver of that flavor in and let it dissolve.
I'm sure that part of it has to do with my odd palette. The same reason I don't eat pickles on hamburgers or green peppers on pizza. Even one pickle on a hamburger, I might as well throw the beef out and just eat a pickle between two slices of bread. Green pepper does the same thing on pizza to me. And it seems that fruit does it in beer. I assume that's why it tastes fake to me, because it's so overwhelming.
