    BLASPHEMY!!!!!!

    Just kidding, everyone's tastes are their own. Sadly enough, there are probably a large number of beer drinkers who don't "get" craft beer in general.

    well, for me i'm not really a fan of IPAs, so pretty much every one of them that people on here love I probably view as either meh or straight up intolerable.

    that aside though, the one non-IPA beer I've had in the past year that i just could not stomach was Blushing Monk. I love most stuff from Founders, but that one i came very close to pouring out

    Hey, I like crappy home brew - I make it too!

    Absolutely - I think perceptions are heavily influenced by emotional state, environment, food, even the people one is with - and that is just without thinking on it. That's why I firmly believe in a robust sampling program...but we shouldn't "threadjack".

    HopSlam or Darklord...granted they are "cult classics" for the craft beer world but damn....the industry has evolved light year's away to things like Double Sunshine and Mornin' Delight....

    I vote for "Mornin Delight Day" :slight_smile: Who's with me?!

    haha this was a fun thread to read over.

    Surly Abrasive. I love Furious and Todd the Axeman, but Abrasive as the name describes is a total turn off. All I taste with it is bitter, bitter, onion/garlic, then more bitter.

    Man I love most of the beers mentioned in this thread...the ones that I've had anyway.

    You guys are freaking nuts!

    Any beers that taste like ditch weed, onions, butter, cider, baby vomit, or straight whiskey.

    If you haven't had Matt's Burning Rosids Imperial Cherrywood-smoked Saison by Stone, do yourself a favor and DON'T. Do NOT spend money on it. I found it to be horrid. It did not taste like a smoked beer to me, it did not taste like a saison, it just made me literally shudder. But I had spent $7.99 so I decided to drink it... FAST. Bad idea. Better not to buy it at all.

    Twist of Cain was easily the best out of the variety pack.

    Anderson Valley Winter Solstice. It tasted like perfume was spilled in it. Just strange.

    Dragon's Milk... love the style but it's easily the thinnest stout aged in barrels that held the cheapest whiskey

    Yeah, Fat Jack is actually one of the first pumpkin beers I ever tried. Didn't care for it at all.
