For me it was just something that everyone did eventually. It's forbidden when you're young, so naturally, you want it. I looked upon drunkenness with interest, because it was obviously a sensation that I hasn't experienced before, and if everyone does it, it's probably safe enough.
I hated the taste initially, for years. But eventually once I found what I liked, it became something that I drank not to get drunk, but rather because I liked the taste and found it refreshing.
