"It's not bad," he said. "It tastes... different than other things I've had here. Very strong."

He's used to sweet fizzy drinks after all. This is a very different sort of taste than the kind he's come to associate with parties. Even the few glasses of wine he had before the Capitol caught on to troll drinking habits didn't taste like this.

"They're for trolls what wine and things like it are for humans, judging by what I've seen at Capitol parties. They probably wouldn't have had the same effect on you as they would on him anyway."

And, he assumed, this beer stuff wasn't going to do much toward getting him drunk. Not that he needed it; he was actually enjoying himself just fine.

"But they would still be tasting good, right?" She asked, taking his drink to try some, since he wasn't drinking it. She wrinkled her nose "It will be being better than this beer I do be thinking."
