Don't order wine if you try it and really hate it. Screwing up your face in distaste as you swallow is not sophisticated.
If you like beer, get a beer that comes from wherever you are. (Don't get Miller Lite) I think the days of beer = fat dudes on the couch scratching themselves while football is on are pretty much over. But I wouldn't not get beer just because you don't think it's "sophisticated." The most sophisticated thing is to be confident.
