Puking after one beer?

I am new to drinking beer, and I was wondering... Why is it that by the time I finish my first cup of beer, I feel sick and puke?

It's like the carbonation just builds up and I feel like I have to burp, but I can't, and instead I puke.

Granted this is usually cheap beer, but no else seems to have this problem. Hard liquor on the other hand is much easier for me to get down.

The Beer Doctor says:

Hi! First of all, cheap beers usually will have this effect on many individual. The reason could be due to many factors, like how the beer has been brewed, the type of yeast used, the pasteurization technique used and also the style of beer you are drinking.

This, along with your body condition, will determine how you will react to the beer you consume.

The reason why others might not be having this problem could be that their body has been accustomed to the beer.

Hard liquor on the other hand undergoes an entirely different production procedure, hence it might be easy for you to consume hard liquor.

My suggestion would be for you to change the beer, maybe to a higher quality brand. Try consuming beer at different temperatures, like chilled or room temperature, or just a cool beer: sometimes this might ease the buildup of gases in your stomach and reduce the chances of you vomiting.

If you feel good with one brand of beer, then it is advisable for you to stick to it.
