#23Earlier quoted context omitted.
A common trajectory seems to be your sentiment, followed by a couple of reluctant retries, followed by eventual, disproportional reverence. I'm no different
Guinness did this to me, I hated it until about 30 and used lots of hyperbolic language to negatively describe it as a dirty ashtray, etc. I now find most styles of beer far too sweet or boozy and Guinness style beer is my go to.
Guinness tastes foul if you've had some beer before trying it.
People ask me to 'try a bit' (i can down a pint whilst my next one is being poured), but I always refuse if they've had a beer beforehand.
I was the same.

#24Club - Mate is so commonly drunk, it inspired a whole range of similar mate soda brands, also available in every supermarket.
Also most Latin Americans don't know about the existence of mate sodas in Germany and they are always surprised when finding out.
P.S.: Why is the history "lost"?
