    IPA's seem to continue to be very popular on the beer scene.
    Just curious about what % of your beers are IPA's?

    I'd say that I'm around 75% IPA's and 25% others.

    How about you?

    I voted 41-60%, but I'm starting to get a little burnt out.

    I'm about 40% IPA's, that will drop as the weather cools, I have a ton of big stouts/porters/Belgians that I've been laying down for a couple of years

    I voted 21-40%, which is pretty much the range where I fluctuate through the year. Right about now I'm definitely at the low end, though- enjoy the O'fests while they're around. :slight_smile:

    I picked 41-60% but it's definitely over 50%. Right now I'm drinking a porter but I know that at some point tonight I'll be reaching for the hops.

    In the two months since I've been back to the US, counting only beers that brand themselves as IPAs---so, e.g., excluding a 'Hoppy Wheat Beer' and excluding Pale Ales, some of which in the US arguably are IPAs; but including, e.g., a 'Black Rye IPA', even though that's not what an IPA traditionally is---47.3% (44/93) have been IPAs.

    Long sentence.

    edit: I'm not proud, but that's what happens when there are so many delicious IPAs.

    I'm the guy who voted 0 - 20%.
    Burned out on IPAs long ago but want to start drinking more once again.

    I did 61-80%. I tend to drink a lot of IPAs but I'm anal about having a few nightcaps of a stout of some type. Now that winters coming it'll prob be more stouts.

    IPAs occupy no particular place of distinction in my beer consumption. I go for maximum variety.

    Just plain old single IPAs (which includes any variants, like black, Belgian, etc.) were about 13% over the last year. If you throw in the imperial stuff, it goes to just a hair under 20%. Was actually wondering about this recently -- kinda fun to go back and look at the actual numbers. I tend to be a variety fiend.

    I think in the 0-20% range. Probably on the higher side of it.

    Of all the beer styles I drink, IPA isn't the most, but it also isn't the least (with that probably being sours currently)

    I am around 75%. Right now I am actually on a bit of a vodka and soda kick. That's like an IPA, right?

    I voted the 81-99 selection, but that included IPAs, IIPAs, and Pale Ales. It probably also included any hoppy beer in any 'other' style that I've heard about. It's probably easier to estimate the non-hoppy consumption, which is probably around 10 percent.

    Including pale ale it's near 100 percent. Keep expecting to burn out but no sign yet.

    I try not to drink too much of any one style in general and gravitate towards things I haven't had before or recently.

    21-40%

    0-20%, and probably on the lower end of that. I do get a craving for one or six on occasion, but I'm over it once the evening ends.
