    I don't enjoy SNPA either. Seems to have a bad bland (and not in a simple is better way) to bitter ratio to me.

    Any "Session IPAS"--- total waste of a beer, either by watering down a perfectly good base beer or wasting a load of hops on something with no taste. Either way, I don't get it

    I agree with this. I never got this beer. My friend and I actually poured half of them out. I don't get the high rating or the taste.

    Smoked beer, the treatment takes over too often. I dont get it, why?

    Barrel aged beer, over half of the ones I try are too much flavor of what ever barrel it was aged in, why infuse so much flavor?

    I tried a barrel aged and smoked IPA, what was I thinking? not good

    I'm indeed hoping that it is, but the bar isn't really set that high at the moment.

    Burton Baton for me, any aged IPA tastes wrong too

    Left Hand Milk Nitro Stout.

    I do not understand how it has a 4.1. That beer was like a prostitute. Got the job done, but wasn't any fun and quite dead inside.

    Couldn't even get good ' head '.

    Okay I'm done.

    Anything from Tired Hands. I guess I just don't get "strange and beautiful" beers.

    I thought it was unique. It taste like bubble gum to me.

    SNPA is my least favorite brew from them, I'll still drink it but I'm always a little disappointed that I end up with 3 of them in the variety packs.

    I can not comprehend how anybody doesn't like BP grunion. When I drink it, I feel as if it was brewed specifically for me. It hits all the right notes, every time. And this discrepancy is exactly what this thread is about.
