Trillium is beyond reproach.

How so?

So the new trend in beer is for breweries to put stuff out on the market that has the consistency and throat burn of the devil's semen, then turn around and tell people to get over it?

And they claim the massive burn and garbage smell is caused by 'bitterness' and that in a week or two it will be fine. Or their customers just don't like 'hops'.

So they finally acknowledged there was a problem? They seemed to be resolutely ignoring it on the socials for a while there.

I used to think the beer old timers that started drinking nothing but classic IPAs and lagers were missing out on something cool.

Now I buy like 2 breweries almost exclusively and think Miller High Life is delightful.

If I get an itch for something hoppy I'll usually just grab a six pack of Blvd Single Wide for $7 and call it a day. Always fresh and always consistent. Maybe too bitter for the new IPA standard, but whatevs.

Samesies. I buy whatever fresh Firestone Walker I can find (Luponic Series, Pivo, etc). And ******* I love High Life. Definitely my post-Men's League Hockey beer of choice.

Trillium pulls that **** too or says your palate is wrong.

It worked for Stone with Arrogant Bastard

I mean, it's not exactly a new trend. Alpine and Lost Abbey took that approach for years.

Has anyone else experienced an alergic-type reaction to these extremely unfiltered beers? I've had hay fever-like reactions to a lot of these beers, and I can only think it has something to do with the sediment.

A while back I had a hazy IPA that had an assload of sediment and it did horrid things to my body. Unlike the better crafted ones that were uniformly cloudy with no apparent sediment, you could actually feel the grit and texture of the sediment in the last half of the pint. Whatever, I was drunk, beer is beer.

The next morning I woke up with what I thought was a hangover, but then as it started getting progressively worse I realized I going through food poisoning symptoms. Chills, fever, ridiculous sinus pressure, and diarrhea ensued. I would have given it the benefit of the doubt, but in my fever dream-fueled delirium I realized that I'd experienced these symptoms every time I have a truly terrible hazy IPA.

I still indulge in hazy IPAs, but I'm a little more wary now. If I can actually see floaties in your ****, gtfo.

That's actually how I felt the day after I had the hazy ipas you sent me in the Catalina bif. I've never noticed any negative effects before, though.

 

[jbeezification1]

Has anyone else noticed that a lot of hazy IPAs have no aroma? To me that's a sure sign of an IPA I want no part of.

I like hazy stuff but I just don't get the fruited IPA thing. When I want an IPA I just want good hop flavors. The fruited ones just taste like a fruited wit or American Wheat, not bad tasting but just not that interesting. People go nuts for them around here though.

They really are delicious

Fair State/Modern Times collaboration IPA, nice and hazy, real tasty, but when I rinsed out the can there were some green boogers that came out. And it's only a week old.

What's the issue here?

Waste of hops too. You can make gimmicky fruit beers without 'em.

Those could have gone into Cali Cotton!

Has anyone seen this Budweiser video staring everyone's favorite new Star Wars bad guy Adam Driver? Well there is a parody version of this video and at this point I just "yawn" at the parody. I get the criticism of Budweiser and Adam Driver and the family who are in the video. But then again they happened upon some fruit that was so low it was already on the ground.
