In a nutshell,You do...but you have to actually try it. The best are for sipping and not shots/mixing. Im more of a tequila guy so I will use that as the example. The college crowd ( generalize ) may think Patron is "great" and that cuervo is . Thats because they havent tried "Cuervo de la Familia". Most dont know about it so cuervo is written off as . My favorite ( at a reasonable price) is Don Julio, so smooth and tasty.
If you get a chance try this:

What Im getting at is there are some unknown brands that go unnoticed unless someone shows them to you. Some of the best brands were ones Ive never heard of prior to trying. |

Meh.
I'm 18 and I live in the U.S. I pretty much drink whatever I can get my hands on. I would really like to learn my alcohol since I like bartending a lot.
I know a little bit about beer, but that's pretty much it. :DHeineken:D |

Well when you see their basic at say $10 a bottle and then see the same brand on a new item at $100+.....I really want to try it. |

You still have a few years to go before you can legally attend tastings and such so stick to the bull beer and booze so when you can buy/afford the better stuff you can notice the quality. You have to develop the palette ( my wine palette sucks, still) at first it all tastes funky. |

Still very much enjoying this:

I got it cheap and it's probably not the best of its kind by far, but I like it, so I'm definitely going to pick up a better quality one when I get the chance. |

It also helps that the bottle looks wicked as well :D
Cleanest and crispest Gin you could possibly find.
I also had this fantastic beer in Temple Bar in London. Bartended said it was called Temple Brau and that they brewed it there. Damn it was good. |

Ketel One.
If it's available, it's what I order. 
Otherwise it's usually Skyy. |
