 Absolutely.  There are much cheaper and easier ways to get drunk than drinking beer.  In fact I drink beer a couple times a week at least, and haven't had enough to even get a buzz in several months. 
As everyone else is saying, it's an aqquired taste.  The first beer I tasted, I spit out.  In High School I drank beer (keystone, busch, or bud and coors when we could afford it) to get drunk, even though I didn't like the taste.  In college, I drank beer (original Coors and bud heavy) to get drunk, but started to like the taste.  
Now I rarely get drunk anymore, but I really like beer, and drink it just for the taste now.  I used to drink at least 1 or 2 a day, but I've been trying to maintain a healthier diet the last year or so, so I have a beer a couple times a week.  My favorites are Anchor Steam, Fat Tire, and Newcastle Brown Ale.  If I want to get drunk though, I still get Bud Light or something, because it's easy to drink, and not filling, so you can put away a 12-pack hehe.
