I'd hate to see what you say to your friends when they hand you a Pabst or Yuengling.

Yeah, sorry, I was messin' around and I was hating more than necessary.


If someone offered me a choice between Sam Adams and Yuengling, I'd take the Yuengling every time. :mug:
 
IPA just means more hops and alcohol. Nothing special about it. You can make a dark roasty beer that can technically be an IPA, or the lightest colored beer that can also be an IPA. It's just another type like anything else, and like any other style, it's got a lot of variety within it.

If you don't like extremely hoppy IPA's, i'd suggest trying Widmer's Nelson Imperial IPA. It's got enough sweetness to balance the hops and alcohol. Very delicious brew :drunk:

I don't follow...

Sarcasm is sometimes lost in the text. As for which to choose, depends on which Sam. Not a big fan of the Boston. Imperial White on the other hand? I would rape small animals for the opportunity to drink that stuff. Just sayin.
 
IPA = you like hops

Belgian = you like yeast

Simply as that...they both have their merits and BOTH have taken over the market...most smaller stores around me have an aisle for belgians, and aisle for IPAs and like 2 other choices, a hefe or something...its getting aggrevating
 
I hated IPAs with a passion for years. In the last couple years my pallet has changed.

Last Friday I went to the local beer store and picked up a bottle of Ruination, Hop Stoopid and a 4 pack of Burton Baton.

Can't get enough hops these days.

But I would still classify RIS as my favorite style.

This might literally be my favorite beer...Widmer Nelson and Lagunitas Sucks are my two favorites lately, absolutely delicious.
