    I personally enjoy kale lol but not raw I saute it in olive oil and garlic. Which may be why I like it

    The words "Martin House". That sour pickle beer was terrible. The hot pickle beer wasn't as gross, but it's a low bar to clear.

    Agree, but my workaround is to pretend that the heat from the peppers is alcohol burn.
    Try it - you'll be amazed. :slight_smile:

    I love Summit hops. Especially in combination with Citra and/or Amarillo.

    Yipes. To me they taste like salty onions and smell like BO.

    Worse than Michelob Ultra? Remembering what the original Mic tasted way back when, that moniker is a case of pissing in your own soup-or beer.

    Hmmm. Is 'cat piss' another way to describe your taste experience? I've seen that descriptor applied to Summit and Mosiac (and I've experienced it) but I recall reading somewhere that that smell/taste characteristic depends on how fresh the hops are when the brewer uses them. (Or maybe it was how old the hops are when the hop grower gets tham processed/dried.)

    I really hate it when a beer has onion elements to it. Is there a hop in general that might give off that taste, or is it just bad brewing?

    At least in my case, the only hop that ever has a cat pee note is simcoe. That's only in really specific beers and it even seems to vary from batch to batch, though. Some beers that feature simcoe (like Pliny) never have that flavor.

    With summit, it basically always has that same salty onions note. I still remember trying the original Gubna from OB (100% summit) and realizing we were about to pour 5 of them out. TRVE's original Nazareth and Renegade E3 were similarly all-summit and both tasted like they were designed to kill vampires. Feels like summit has fallen out of favor lately, though. All of the local places that used to use it seem to have either dropped it completely, or made it small part of a blend.

    Bud Light Next 0.
    0 flavor
    0 body. I have not, nor will try it, but with 0 carbs, it can't be good.
    Any beer with groceries in it is another pass, unless a fruit Lambic.
    Anything milkshake.
    Session IPA's. Just call them a Pale Ale already!
    Gose.

    I’m not a big fan of coconut in beer period.


    The worst sounding beer to me was Brown Note by Against the Grain, I couldn’t get past the can art to even try it. I’m gagging now thinking about it.

    I guess I can honestly say I've never had Summit hops because I've never experienced either of those (off-putting in beer) characters! :grin::grimacing:
