Beer in a can: Can you taste the aluminum in the fluid? I think I can.
What about in other products?

Metallic tasting food or drink products

Most cans are lined with i very thin layer of epoxy or polymer to prevent the acidic product coming in contact with the aluminium which is toxic.
@ChristineM is correct.
Any taste alteration you perceive is either psychosomatic or olfactory as a result of your nose's proximity to the can.

Or due to the medications you are on.

and many of those liners have 'Bisphenol A' in them.... also not good for a human
Which is why the EU is moving to ban its use in food packaging.
That's why you don't cook your beans
hobo style, ie, in the can over a fire.
And please...cut back on your beans.

I think we are considering that here as well.... however we still use Red Dye 40 and I know the EU banned it, as it should be here

Most canned foods in the States are now BPA free.

I don't shop for canned foods much these days, but when I did it was rare to see a can that said BPA free. If most are now, that's a good thing. Can it still be found in virtually any plastic cup, utensil or plastic lined water bottle?
Plastics that are marked with a recycle code of 3 or 7 may contain BPA.

Good, so now we just have to deal with microplastics
I have hundreds of cans of sardines &
herring from Menards. (I like fishy fish.)
They've never had a metallic taste.

How could you taste anything when you wash it all down with a bottle of Scotch... besides...you can't taste a hallucination...
That means it won't be banned in the USA for another 40 years. I know, I'm an optimist. I'm sure they will replace it with something more toxic, because Capitalism first, human safety second.
Unlike people in movies, I don't gulp down me booze.
I sip small portions slowly because I love the taste.
You can believe me when I say that I don't drink
much (by volume).....because I'm cheap.
It's Capitalism that allows you access to so much food in the first place.
Hundreds? So you buy them, but know better than to eat them?
Right, you tried it once, but keep on buying it. Habits are hard to break.
