IPAs can be very good but there are too many of them. (I like Deschutes' stuff.)

IPAs are loving delicious and my roommate's dad used to work for Long Trail and they are really good and tasty and get you drunk really quick. I prefer east coast IPAs

it's annoying and gimmicky as hell when these brewers put coffee and chocolate into these stouts

the style uses those words to refer to the color and so many companies are just like COFFEE PORTER NEEDS MORE COFFEE ADD HAZELNUT AND VANILLA TOO


oatmeal is also poo poo garbage and adds nothing of value to brewing beer

I'm a friend to all fermented hopped products, but the Germanic recipe is my go-to refresher:

1) American lagers (PBR, all else is far, far shittier)

2) Becks (favorite of SS troops and to socialist beggars alike)

3) Sapporo, even Kirin (I believe they've improved the recipe yet somehow didn't include captured housepets)

I used to think that people who said things like "Budweiser just tastes like water" were being dickheads. But now that I drink mostly IPAs and other more flavorful beers, when I have a Coors it really just does taste like sweet water. I can still appreciate it though, it goes great with a meal as a refreshing drink better than an IPA does.

I'm the same, but I'm no fan of IPAs at all. Porters, stouts, belgian ales are my thing. I also like scotch ales and up to trying other styles. Just not a fan of how IPAs taste at all. Alcohol percentage needs to be 8% or higher.

After trying out various microbrew stouts, Guinness tastes like a watered down stout and the aftertaste tastes like licking a metal spoon in comparison



gently caress yeah! Old Rasputin is my favorite.

I currently have a standing bet that I can't drink 3 Guinnesses in 5 minutes. I'm going to do it next Friday.

This challenge was issued because I called Guinness "thin."

I enjoy a wide variety of beer styles, from IPAs to wheat beer to stout. There are so many delicious beers of all types, but many people like to limit themselves to mostly one style rather than expand their palate, because they're children.

I do have to wonder why all the breweries currently have like 12 different IPAs though, I just want something else

alcohol/caloric content

you know, the things that make light beer light

color is independent of this


a guinness is 4.2% ABV and has almost exactly the same calorie count as a bud light
