We had pickle shots a couple times over the holidays and everyone that tried it ranged from "wow that was interesting" to "oh my god that is delicious". The number of people who thought it was gross after trying it was zero. You guys that are knocking it should try it. If you don't like it feel free to at that point, but my experience thus far is that you won't be knocking it.
