Pretty much. I can’t have like 1 maybe two and I’m done. I don’t know how people can drink a 6 pack of them and tell me it’s good.

There are many variations of IPAs. I have worthless taste and smell (lol) but even to me some IPAs are a totally different beer than others.

The extremely hopped/alcoholic ones are often obnoxious, to me. But something like Founders All Day IPA* (I think it's called a session ipa) is light but flavorful and only 4.x% It's almost refreshing.

They aren't paying me, but they are welcome to!

It promises to be just as memorable and thrilling as last time. I for one relished the opportunity to learn that a cloudy 3 per cent bruschetta has superior grits to a hoppy old brown trouser.

I cant find the post/tweet but there's the joke about how there are two types of IPA: Dr. McGillicuddy's Whimsical Hypergalactic Pennyfarthing Moustache Hopstravaganza, and Crimson Heretic's Lupulin Death Jeep Hashish Enema Whip. I'm way off but the spirit is there

It's cool to like things and not like other thing. It's also good to try new things! Not all IPAs are bitter but if you still don't like em, that's fine! Also, gently caress you.

Depending on how you isomerize the alpha acids in your hops you can get something very bitter or something very fruity/floral/light. Just push you hops to the end of your boil and use varieties that give flavours you enjoy, like amarillo or citra or crystal. Or just drink bud light or whatever.

I'll take a jan 6er for being baited into this bullshit.

It's because every time I tell somebody I don't like beer, they don't believe me for some reason and try to convince me my personal preferences are wrong.

It's funny, because I don't drink myself, but any time someone finds that out, their reaction is ALWAYS "Oh my god, did you like get drunk and drive through a family or something?!"

Cause the only reason someone wouldn't drink is because they once obliterated a family with their car while drunk.

It used to be the big bitter IPAs that dominated but now it's the new england and oat cream IPAs and man, I can't stand them. As soon as a fad kicks off every brewery tries to make the worst beer possible as they destroy the style in pursuit of a single factor.

I like IPAs, and I still wish that. They're something I like sometimes but I don't want to drink all the time every time I drink beer.





I also like stouts. Even weird heavy sweet stouts. But I also feel this one hard.



Give me some nice rich, mild, roasty stuff like Guinness draft too.

This. I like mostly imperial stouts but locally so few breweries make them so I rarely get to try anything new.
