I have enjoyed IPA's since they first came on the scene. But now I am on a craft brew Larger kick. It is all about the balance. Does that mean I'm getting old?
I have to accept that I'm not the beer snob I thought I was. I too am a lager/pilsner, red, Black and Tan guy. I've tried all the IPAs and don't like any of them. So much so, I don't get what anyone likes about them. I guess I'm a beer wuss.
