Overrated Beers?

Any beer rated 100 for over 10 years on Beer Advocate.

 

I stopped buying Maine Lunch (and their other beers) years ago. $7 for a 16.9 oz bottle became too much once the excitement of buying it wore off. Then beers like Singlecut and Other Half beers came to my market at $22-$26 per 4-pack, and again, after the initial excitement of "scoring" these, I stopped buying. Then I slowly stopped buying any 4-pack more than $16..
However, I did just buy Haze and Doppelganger while traveling through MA last weekend, at $20/4-pack. I hadn't had TH in a while, and I am pleased to say they tasted as good as I remember! I know many here will disagree with that.
Nowadays I stick with 12-packs of Voodoo Ranger Juicy Haze for my NEIPA fix... IMHO they hold up to all the other hyped NEIPAs. And anyting by Marlowe. Usually $12/4-pack. Aside from that, I always have my Guinness on hand. :-)

 

Same here. I was really excited to see all the out of state beers at first but the excitement has worn off. I can't justify spending that much on a beer anymore (that tastes like at least 20 other beers iv had). 5-6$ a pint seems to be my limit now. I don't buy many NEIPAs anymore. Been returning to styles I started off with and trying styles I haven't had before oruch off. I do plan to stock up on some Guinness for next month.

 

Aslin beers were so hyped in my area at one point - I never got it - I stopped there on the way to the beach, and it's totally fine - but it was nothing elevated in my eyes. They even opened a spot here in pittsburgh now, which is great, I'll drink it, but it's not something I seek out.

 

Guess taste isn't actually subjective after all, appreciate you clearing this up.

 

I could quote a lot of NEIPAs from high-ranking breweries for this list. Idk, I think I'll live and let live for the day. Think positive and a good day.

 

My cousin (wll, technically my wife's cousin, but whatever) came up to visit last summer and brought a few packs of Aslin along. They were very good. |I wouldn't put them in world-class category, but since I went in with basically no expectations, I did enjoy them. I don't remember which ones they were. One of them had some hop / yeast burn at the end, but it was tasty regardless.

 

Pretty sure that's the guy who changed his avatar to that beer to "own the libs" when there was a flap about the label being inappropriate.

To be fair. If someone sees sexual chocolate as the pinnacle of beer flavor, it's not surprising that they wouldn't like orval

 

I have enjoyed Aecht Schlenkerla Urbock, loved it. And tonight, just drank my first Jever. And that first can of Jever was for me, revelatory!
