Memes

Those dudes are so basic the pic looks ai-generated.

I don't get it? IPAs are good year round.

I'm German. I look down upon these pesants. The best beer is dark and unfiltered. Anything else cannot compare.

Vegans, PSL girls, IPA guys, furries, and anime nerds seem to be the most popular targets for boring, basic memes.

Good beer is good beer.

It's the middle of Oktoberfest season, and you went with IPAs for this meme?

I don't get it.

I don't even like IPAs all that much.

But like... Pumpkin Spice is a seasonal artificial flavor that is I think annoying to people because it's made its way into everything from marshmallows to crackers to milk.

IPA is a style of beer. That's it.

I'm German too, while I usually prefer southern german beer with a strong wheat, malt and yeast flavour I also occasionally like to explore other flavours like IPA or more exotic ones from different countries. I mean, drink what you like or don't drink at all (which might be better, health-wise). Gates open, come on in.

I am a basic ass white dude and this is accurate.

The best part is, I can have an IPA all year round!

I’ve never really considered hops to be an interesting flavor. It’s just… flat and bitter to me.

I truly don’t understand why so many people love IPAs, or try to sneak extreme hoppiness into other beer styles. (An IPA with fruit juice is not a saison! And a 70 IBU “kolsch” is a war crime!)

As a person who prefers the complex, bright and earthy flavors from grains and yeast, getting face-fucked at the end of every sip by a one-note weed pine cone is so disappointing.

Everyone who doesn't get it needs to read this.

Something I should mention: I do like IPAs (not only IPA but they are tasty) and can find all 3 of the style of shirt in this weird AI looking stock image in my closet.

Soooooo...

OP just doesn't know good beer. (shrug)

if it isnt brewed in a monestary in belgium whats even the point #notlikeotherguys

Yeah that's not how ipas work.

That’s pretty true. People are so passionate about having an ipa

Food has a cultural component tied to its manufacture and identification. And IPAs are food that probably shouldn't exist and which only does as a byproduct of market capitalism. They're the Lacanian 'object a' - an empty, manufactured falseness. We don't desire the thing itself, but the thing whose absence it symbolizes. What you're really consuming when you drink an IPA is its innate mechanical predictability.

(Thanks to the thread last week arguing about pumpkin spice lattes for giving me a new copypasta to use about anything I personally dislike.)

If they weren't so overplayed it wouldn't be so bad, but every microbrew has like 3 IPAs, 2 dry-hopped pilsners, and a seasonal novelty that if you're lucky is something noticably different like a wheat beer or a porter.

cant get much else craft beer wise where i live.

i like a porter ale but theres only like one shop that does one.

Stouts are nice but guinness is overplayed. Brewdog have released a stout that seems to be doing well though, but i like variety

drinking anything other than vodka

How can you call yourself a true communist?

I have no idea what any of those words mean

Yeah, but I don't drink 16 pumpkin spice lattes in one sitting.
