I'm pretty sick of IPAs too, op. The rigamarole of signing them is still ridiculous, despite Apple's "improvements" in Xcode. "Automatically manage signing" my rear end!

APKs are so much easier to produce it's not funny. Now if only we could make them work more or less uniformly across Android devices...

Tomorrow is the first day of October, and that means every drat brewery is going to release their version of an Octoberfest beer. I have never in my life had an Octoberfest that didn't suck out loud.

Those come out in September, dorkus. I'd say half are good, half are crap.

A trend ive noticed in gbs beer threads is that people who complain about IPAs seem to have only recently discovered them and therefore assume that they are a very recent trend when in fact IPAs and the entire craft beer 'movement' are decades old. Also cheap beer drinkers and craft beer drinkers both accusing each other of being hipsters. Basically if you are reading this go gently caress yourself

People are complaining about the very real hipster trend of drinking IPAs such that when you go to a bar that has 24 taps, 20 of them are IPAs or IIPAs.

This title text is surprisingly sturdy.
I've been drinking craft for a couple of years now and even though I'll drink IPAs, they're still definitely not my favorite. Burton Baton is pretty excellent though. Anyway, stout season is my time of year for beer. Can't stand all of this pumpkin poo poo.

I don't know why this is true but looking at this picture I imagine this is an incredible beer, rich with history, full of flavor! Worth importing even. And yet from every experience I have I am sure the brewery down the road in my bum gently caress town makes better tasting beer. Must just be that microbreweries have their son MS Paint a label and print it out as stickers and they can't convince new customers as easily of their mastery of a craft

I think that red sours are a lot better than brown sours and plain non-syrupped Berlinerweiße is the best sour, but do whatever you like the most.

Ideally they'd have a good mix but where I am even in the winter it's 90% IPAs. I wouldn't mind so much but like I said they give me a headache for some reason. Like even after just 1 I'll have a pounding migraine coming on.

I bet you live in a place that doesnt have a real winter like the PNW. also, one time I found out about a motorhead show the day it was happening, called and got one of the last tickets, raced into town and got one of the last good parking spots, and the minute I walked inside motorhead went onstage and played my favorite song (iron fist). Old rasputin was on tap and I had very much of it
