You don't have to get rip-roaring hammered. Really, getting that ripped isn't fun.
Some things (e.g. straight hard liquor) is an acquired taste, and yeah, if you don't have a taste for it, it can smell and taste terrible.
Try some hard cider sometime though. It's only moderately alcoholic and the crisp varieties taste like not-overly-sweet fizzy apple juice.
