Grapefruit Heavy IPAs

Victory Dirtwolf, great beer too!

 

Dark Horse Crooked Tree, dank grapefruit bomb

 

What is the definition of tasting like beer? With so many styles in existence, I don't think that "beer" has a definitive taste.

 

I was wondering if anyone was going to say Hopstache, so much grapefruit in such a good way.

For a fully grapefruit forward IPA without the best presentation is Perrin's Grapefruit IPA, it tastes like a glass of grapefruit juice with beer splashed in

 

I agree and should have read on before posting my previous post. The idea of beer tasting like "beer" reminds me of my uncles who seem to define "beer" as the taste of an American Light Lager, and anything else is considered a fruity or "dark" beer (even IPA's). I don't agree with that idea at all, but in a small rural town of Illinois, that is a common way of thinking.

 

I was simply agreeing that there are a lot of so called "beers" that do their best to taste like "not beer". I feel like these resemble something like Mike's Hard Lemonade more than beer. Just because the brewer labels it a cucumber saison (even though it has so much cucumber there is nothing resembling a saison to be found) doesn't mean it really belongs in the saison category. Or a watermelon kolsch that tastes just like a watermelon wine cooler.

To add to my earlier post, I'd put the Schlafly Tasmanian IPA on the grapefruity side, too. That's just a citrus bomb in general though.

 

Well said. If you re a doosh...You re my favorite new doosh!

 

IBUsive is so great. My local favorite when it is around. The mosaic hop does it for me.

 

GD Hercules is a grapefruit bomb, I didn't think the Grapefruit Slam IPA was nearly as potent as Hercules

 

Really? Bc I get cilantro/onion/garlic.

 

Finest Kind = oodles of grapefruit

 

Humidor Jai Alai. Unreal.

 

You didn't apologize enough. Please rewrite your post with more self-flagellation.

 

Nice man, when you get a chance please rewrite your post with more arrogant dooshbaggery I always love the forum shit talkers, you're really sweet buddy. Sorry that I wanted to express an opinion and not embarrass or humiliate the people I was quoting. Oh shoot I just said sorry, did I just once again self-flagellate too much? Well gosh dangit thats my bad! Haha god you're a dooshbag. Question guys, I know we have a bad trader thread, is there an "extremely dooshy BA'er alert" thread yet? Ba dum tss!

 

Lol thank you my friend. Question though, if I'm your new favorite doosh, can 5thOhio be your new least favorite doosh.

 

My buddy who is the beer orderer at my local store said that he got the same flavors/nose, he also said Oskar blues had the same problem with Gubna and it was due to the deterioration of the hops.

 

Yes!
