    Personally I can't really drink too many IPA's while out because if so I become crazy lethargic and all I want to do is go home and sleep. I usually limit my IPA consumption to one a night because of this.

    Hops and alcohol both have sedative properties, and each will impact people differently.

    Daft. A beer out of St. Louis from Urban Chesnut. Two sips and I was out. I woke up drunk, had a few more sips and thought about going back to sleep. That beer destroyed me. It was the best beer I've had in a while.

    hops were once used as a sleeping aid and thought to be 'an unwholesome weed that promotes melancholy'. Before I got used to em, IPAs would put me out

    Weird. Until I get to beer number 10, I just continue to get more and more riled up. I've never noticed beer making me unusually sleepy.

    Some imperial stouts make a pretty good nightcap for me. RIS in general dont make me tired I can have one earlier in the day and be fine, but sometimes it just feels right later at night.

    Don't the brewers realize I like to drink beer at night? (Of course they're all brewing these delights just for me :grinning: )
