And my true beer-love is a tasty porter or oatmeal stout.Depends. If its a good, complex and tasty beer, I love hops. If it feels like the brewer just shoved 2-3x as many hops into a bottle, then nope. A lot is good, but more isn't necessarily better...
Grounds for divorce.HA, my husband doesn't care for IPA and it's my favorite type!
Reminds me of this piece of history, Chocolate milk ban.I am banning anyone who replies to this thread in the affirmative.
Beast Ice isn't a substitute for IPA. Think of it as a substitute for bottled water that is cheaper and gets you drunk.Simmer down there, Mr Milwaukee's Best Ice.
I am not a huge IPA fan. I'll drink some now and then, but it is pretty low on the list.
Hops for the sake of hops is just a fad, much like tight jeans, fixies and PBR. Enjoy your bandwagon, sheeple.
I love hops but I like a complex beer even more. For a while I was of the mindset that more hops was good, too much was better. Now I'm really getting into more balanced beers, I still love a good hop overload every now and then but the novelty has worn off for the most part. I wouldn't say that I'm anti-IPA though, it's still my go-to beer.
Yeah, it's unlike him not to chime in and tell us that we all suck.Where is SteveW and his total anti-beer platform?
I'm still a hophead, didn't you read my post?
Christ. So you actually are no longer a hophead? You're breaking my heart.
And where's my imperial pilsner!?
Believe me, it was very tasty!...

And no SkaredSphyncter here to tell us that the IPAs we like are vastly inferior to the ones he likes.Yeah, it's unlike him not to chime in and tell us that we all suck.
Wouldn't it be amusing if we had a monkey on the west coast to tell him that too...Believe me, it was very tasty!
Where do I sign up?Wouldn't it be amusing if we had a monkey on the west coast to tell him that too...
I like hoppy beers but the "just toss a bunch of hops in and let it punch you in the face beers" don't compare to a beer where they cultivate the hoppyness to bring out more of the aromatic and complex flavors. Smuttynose is a punch you in the face beer. had a hopsecutioner last night and it was lovely.I love hops but I like a complex beer even more.

That's one of the reasons Sq-Earl & I get along so well. He LOVES the IPAs and drinks them all first while I savor the Porters & Stouts and have the occasional IPA (when I can steal them away).HA, my husband doesn't care for IPA and it's my favorite type!
I hate IPA.
I dont drink beer......I should put that in my sig as well
your freedom is the reason I cant drink beer.Why do you guys hate Freedom?
I get knocked down... but I get up again... you're never gonna keep me down...i hear you are more of a Newkie kinda guy.
The only thing I can say about that is, Thank you!your freedom is the reason I cant drink beer.
I was being sarcastic. No offense meant.your freedom is the reason I cant drink beer.
