So true!As long as the fruit isn’t right in your face, they can be nice.
I think it is an acquired taste like anything else. I love super hoppy IPAs but up until a few years I was on a long German and Belgian kick, darks and ambers before that and the usual college kid swill before that.What is the fascination with IPA's?
I am seriously curious? I cannot for the life of me stomach 99/100 IPA's, and much prefer barley over hops, all day every day... I mean, I get the whole "different strokes for different folks", but, IPA's that are Hop heavy and then some, how and why are they so popular??? Am I the oddball??? I have turned down so many intriguing variety cases just because they ALWAYS have an IPA inluded and that's a 99.8% deal breaker for me...
Pretty much this for me too.I think it is an acquired taste like anything else. I love super hoppy IPAs but up until a few years I was on a long German and Belgian kick, darks and ambers before that and the usual college kid swill before that.
I hated peaty scotch until I was 35 or so too and now at 49, the peatier the better.
Most of my friends can’t stand IPAs either and mainly drink ambers and Bud, Coors Lite and the mass produced Canadian stuff like Canadian, Keith’s, blue as well as Stella and Heineken.
To each their own.![]()
I’m with you, I really don’t care for big IPAs.What is the fascination with IPA's?

Mariokart 64 gets a big thumbs up.![]()
Feeling like a bit of a flavorful night.
I've just turned 21 and discovered that I have a taste for IPA's. I wanted to check them out from seeing everything on here and I quite like them. But my usual drink of choice is a nice rum and root beer. I usually prefer mixers or drinking things straight up, but when the time is right nothing beats a cold brew
