That's the real pull of the IPA, where you can drink five and be good instead of 20 Coors or whatever.

I'm starting to think people assume I'm some sort of Heartland American. I don't drink the three major beers here. I think I have some sort of allergic reaction to an overabundance of Hops, which is why I hate them.

I drink Dogfish Head's Namaste, and I love a good Belgian White. But I'm extremely unlikely to try any IPA.

The ones I listed don't assault your palette with hops if you feel like taking a chance. Your taste is your taste though so I get it. I find Belgians too sweet myself.

If you like it, I'm happy for you. But the rest of us do not care.
And you wonder why people call you boomer? You sound like a dad who can't stand his son's metal music while his son can't stand Fox News being on all day.

I've barely dipped into anime though. I watched Cowboy Bepop and loved it. Started My Hero Academia and hated it. Fullmetal Alchemist was OK but didn't hold my attention. That's about all I've given a concentrated effort to. Should I watch this Evangelion show?
And yes, if you like Death Note and Cowboy Bebop but aren't into My Hero Academia then Evangelion should be required viewing.

I personally find IPAs boring but love Hazy IPAs.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

I love metal and I hate Fox. So I wonder.

Craft beer at gas stations means people get priced out of their neighborhood.

As a man of the Left I must say, it's disheartening to see my own trivialize real problems in society.
