I drink, probably too much, and feel like I enjoy the flavors of many different drinks. But I don't think that's evidence that it's not really just a chemical dependence. I certainly remember there was a time when I didn't enjoy the flavors I believe I do now.

Your point about variety is good but, again playing devil's advocate, maybe that's necessary to keep drinking socially acceptable and sustain the illusion that there's more to it than just addiction?

The most convincing argument though is that we do enjoy the flavors of fermented things that aren't intoxicating.
