I grant you the occasional one is terrific, but most of them just taste like acrid grass.
Get me a good banana-y hefeweizen or a chocolate stout over a beer that smells like pot and tastes like you steeped lawnmower clippings in hot water and baking soda any day. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Teen Girl Squad posted...I feel like it was the original tryhard beer. "Look at all their posers drinking generic piss-water. I'm a real man and drink the 'strongest' stuff." IPA became a 'bro' drink mostly because it's necessarilly strong to balance out the bitterness, whereas other styles can be ~5% abv but the reason they're made at all is despite this they're still cheaper to make than those since their signature ingredient is cheap and the extra abv can come from the cheapest form of malt, pale malt. to make stouts you need a lot of extra kilned malts which are much pricier and you have to order it in bulk despite it being a small portion of the grain bill. to make a hefe or abbey ale you need specialized yeasts which you often can't maintain cultures of easily. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

I'm a real man and drink the 'strongest' stuff." the difference between a bud light and an IPA is that the bud light is actually drinkable, whereas the IPA you have to take in sips and then it fills you up like you just had a full fucking meal. meanwhile you can just pound 3 bud lights and you're good to go, plus maybe you'll even get a buzz --- A Green Butter Alt http://i.imgur.com/LhwwG.gif ...

if you ask me the 'hipster beer' right now is sours, not IPAs well yeah, http://www.bevindustry.com/2017-beer-market-report I can't actually read the article because I'm not signing up but After many years of double-digit gains in volume and dollar sales in the United States, the craft beer market could be approaching a status of maturation, according to analysts. This deceleration of growth for craft beer is being attributed to a variety of factors, including SKU proliferation and quality issues. However, bright spots for the segment include sour beers as well as international growth.

yep, ever since michael tomslinere released american sour beers a lot of brewers are using it to perfect kettle sour techniques so they don't destroy their brewery aging a barrel sour and it's working. people pay big $ for sours even though kettle sours are no harder than regular ones to make. i'm making a berliner for an octoberfest myself --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...
