My problem with IPAs, especially from craft beer breweries, is that they always seem like they're trying to out-hop each other and no one is winning.

all beer inherently tastes bad and pretending to like it is a shared illness

>>9155326

My girlfriend at the time was into graphic design and helped me get it all onto some program she used for work. I did all the sketches and rough drafts.

I could only actually bottle 12 of them because, as it turns out, high-quality ink and paper isn't cheap, so I just bottled the rest and kept it in a spare fridge.

It wasn't bad, but it definitely needed some refining. The peach flavor was weak but the carbonation and sugar levels were just right. I suppose it wasn't bad for a first batch.

I've already trademarked the brewery name just in case

>>9155137

You know there's other types of beer out there, right?

IPAs aren't everything

>>9155137

Honestly the best drink to make with 40oz malt liquor is a Brass Monkey

Drink the beer down to the top of the label, fill it back up with orange juice, cap it, roll it across the floor to mix it up, then enjoy.

It's actually pretty good despite being associated with certain... undesirables

IPAs are delicious (though I also love scotch ales and amber ales).

>>9161818
Yeah but a good IPA from Founders or Bells is amazing. They require a high threshold of excellence and there are too many bad ones out there.

>>9161760
It's because most of them just don't taste good. I've noticed a lot of people who talk about drinking IPAs don't talk about the "right" kind of bitterness that doesn't make you feel sick, or proper balancing of flavors or anything like that, they just talk about bitterness ratings like it's a competition. Kind of like some people with hot sauces, they'll eat hot sauces that don't taste good just because they added pure capsaicin in it to make it hotter.

I only had one IPA that had the right kind of bitterness that didn't make my stomach feel gross, even though it was very bitter it was the "right" kind of bitter. The "right" kind of bitter mostly stays in your mouth but the wrong kind will make your stomach feel off, and that's how most IPAs are.

I've also noticed some people who drink IPAs talking about how much they like bitterness and dislike sweetness but after a while they give it up and just drink whatever they think tastes good. Most people don't want beer-drinking to be a competition of who can handle the most bitter swill.

>>9161835
Of course there are good IPAs out there.

Like most things, IPA hate is a generalization, because as you said there as so many bad ones.

>>9161826
im getting more 2hearted tomorrow. it's good. getting some kind of stout tonight though. not sure what.

>>9161855
I really like IPAs that are citrusy, but piney IPAs churn my stomach. It's all in the hops, not in the amount of the hops as you said. That's what an IPA is after all, a hop forward beer.

>>9161859
>it's good.
I thought so too until I tried drinking one when I was hungover. I nursed it for an hour and gave up the ghost. Never drink an IPA hungover.
>getting some kind of stout tonight though. not sure what.
Try Lagunitas, they make a nice stout that is quite affordable.

What do you guys think about Fulton Brewery's "300" IPA? I had one yesterday and to be frank I had to choke it down. It tasted like medicine.

Are IPAs any easier or tougher to brew than something like a porter or an English bitter? A brewery opened in my town recently, and they only offer IPAs. I'm aware it's extremely popular, but for fuck's sake, I'd like some variety that isn't limited to an expensive seasonal release.

i like some ghost river, and some abita beers, but i usually only get a six pack or two a week, so i don't try all the local brews.
there is only one or two places i'm aware of that even has decent imports. i guess i need to make a trip next week to scare up some good stouts if i can. i ended up with another 6 of random shit from kroger because i was in a hurry to come make dinner. Lagunitas little sumpin' ale is pretty good. glad i got it.

As you probably know wtach the expiration dates. We tend to get old ass beer here, maybe from sitting on the shelf too long

I rarely find beer to be undrinkable unless it's something that's been chilled and warmed and chilled again due to bad shipping practices.

>having to empty out the cellar into a guest bedroom because of renovation


Apparently I'm a hoarder as i now have cases of beer strewn about my basement .

>>9164917
lol you're not a hoarder, you're an alcoholic

>>9164921
Yeah, i cant afford to be an alcoholic on this shit.

>>9164917
how long does beer stay good?

>>9164944
Depends on the beer. And and style play a big role. Really big stuff like huge barley wines can go for a very long time. (Their is a 25 yo Thomas Hardys in that picture im opening in august). Most people will tell you that you get diminishing returns on things older than 5 years but I think they are full of shit and havent properly stored their stuff. If it's under 8.5% dont keep it for more than a year. Some styles (iPa' s for instance) should be drank fresh.

>>9164930
I remove my beer paraphernalia every single day because I rent. Literally no one but the cashiers at the store know I'm an alcoholic and it's illegal for them to reveal my purchases to anyone else. I just tote the beer bottles back down to trashcans or dumpsters in town. I have to be secretive.

>>9164964
>Abv and style*

Fuck you android keyboard

>>9164964
My homebrew supply store owner had a Barleywine that he aged for 12 years in a whiskey barrel. I sampled some and it was hellacious good. He told me to guess what it was and since it was pitch black I guessed Imperial Stout.

>>9164981
It'll take 20 months before you're proficient in android 2 keyboarding. I get really fast and angry while I'm drunkposting.

>>9164944
I don't like beer older than 20 days. Always skunks.

>>9164990
Skunking is physically and chemically impossible in the absence of UV light. Your beer spoiled another way or you didnt store it properly.

Also: typing on this pos has been rough since Samsung pushed android 7. Marshmallow was fine.

>>9165049
I guess it's just dropped bottles and shit handling then man. Some beers just get really shitty. I do sit outside and drink but I keep them out of direct sunlight, but they're sometimes skunked when I get them. I blame the beer stocker and the truck driver.

>>9164988
Aging in oak is different than bottle aging. The beer is interacting ultimately with the outside environment (the wood acts as a buffer for biological interactions but moisture/heat/other shit still are transferred through the wood. Albeit slowly) This is a hard concept for begginer whiskey fags as they think grandpa's 35 year old jack daniels fifth thay he half drank and forgot at the cabin is worth $$$. (It's not, whiskey is rendered inert by its abv and the sealed environment of a bottle. Without the barrel letting environment interact with it, whiskey doesnt change much after it is bottled.) What makes beer and wine different is the stuff is still "alive" in that the cultures that provide fermentation are suspended by the upper tolerances of abv for their strains and do all kinds of complex chemical shit as they live and die in the solution.

>>9165055
Oxygen ingress during bottling, poor bottling conditions, exposure to light or just shitty beer are the most common causes.

>>9165055
I really believe getting beer cold then warming it up and rechilling it makes it skunk too.

>>9165093
Whelp, you believe in a commonly held fallacy.

>light can not enter

What's your problem? You're not the consumer, you likely don't purchase or drink the shit. We do, and we still get skunked cans.

>>9165113
Or just misinformed like
>>9165106

>>9165116
It isnt "skunked" and you are using a term that you clearly don't grasp in context. Drink a fucking heineken.

>>9165119
I don't google information about skunked beer.
I fucking buy it. And it pisses me off. How is google a more reliable source than a physical transaction?

Yes, you can buy aluminum cans that are skunked.

>>9165131
absolutely can. i have bought beer different kinds that were perfectly cold and crisp and let them get to room temp and recooled them and they were fucking awful. i think he's getting his info from some kind of beer nazis or something.

>>9165131
Or you are either A) buying shitty beer with a bad production process or B) you don't know what a "skunked" beer actualy tastes like, and use it as a generic term you picked up anecdotally for spoiled beer. Congratulations. Stop being a retard and buying shitty beer that apparently is "skunked" right from the shelf.

Since this is the de facto beer thread, I'll post this Canadian beer. I get a "hefeweizen" feel from the yeast, fruit flavor, and the bitterness of spice. There's also a pleasant tinge of alcohol (9% ABV) which is rushing to my head as I type. It's also heavily carbonated so it tingles as it flows. This is some good shit.

Im drinking a 2 hearted ale as i type. Im not an IPA fan. But this beer is tremendous. A problem i run into with ipa is the overly piney and grapefruit notes. In this beer its so balanced. You get a citrus and hop taste at the start but its only a moment. Then you get a delicious malt flavor tempered with bittering hops. And a drying faint piney finish. Ive had pliney the elder and this beer is in the same league or slightly ahead. I would have to have them side by side.

You are so fucking ignorantly wrong it's amazing. Charlie Papazian published, "The Joy of Homebrewing" in the early 80's when microbrews were beginning to startup again after the drought caused by prohibition and brewers switching to adjuncts for cheapness and satisfying the feminine palate during WWII. It was a Boomer driven movement by men who were sick of having feminized adjuncts or skunked imports as the only choices in beer. They have a shitload more in common with the men and beer scene in 19th century America when there were over 4000 microbreweries operating than your feminine adjuncts, pussfag.

Tried their Eliot Ness? Probably my favorite US-produced lager. Fucking delicious.

What's wrong with Bell's? AB hasnt bought them up too, have they? Please say no, I really like their old ale.

>>9179181
I've tried them all, I'm from OH. Eliot Ness is indeed quite good, but Nosferatu is my fave

Love me some Upland wheat.

I've never seen Two Hearted in a can before. Good beer tho.

>>9179221
What's wrong with the eagles

>>9179240

I fuckin' hate The Eagles, man

>>9179221
top kek

it's just very common. i like the oberon alright, and their mars dipa is good. i'm just not too impressed with the two hearted ale. it's like the velvet underground of beers. the people who drink it think they're drinking this very special thing that few people know about.

>>9179291
No one thinks that. It's in every bar and liquor store and even most gas stations. It's the Sierra Nevada of the midwest

>>9179310
i already said it's common. it is for IPA right now what people used to think of boston lager compared to macro pilsners. at least in my city.

>>9179310
It's in most stores here in the southwest too. Maybe it's just good beer and hating it for being popular is what fags do

>>9179291
Two Hearted is probably the best widely available old school IPA

>>9179291
Literally no one drinking Bells considers it obscure

>>9179354
i'm not saying it's bad, it's just weirdly exalted.

>>9179407
I mean, IPAs in general have gotten way the fuck better over the last 10 years, but before that Two Hearted was amazing. But unless you are in the UP, it doesn't seem like people talk about it that much anymore

Well this is it boys, bump limit, time to go down with the ship. It's been a pleasure shitposting with you

I legit love getting hammered on coors light and pissing every 15 minutes. It just feels right

>>9179429

excellent choice

Thanks.
