The taste of Beer
« on: Sun, 31 August 2025, 18:04:50 »
How would you describe it?

Tp4 feels, the most similar thing to beer, taste+smell, is raw chicken breast. :eek:

Personally I'm currently a big fan of fruited sour ales, which taste kinda like rotted fruit

Oh man they have a lot of good stuff on their site. A lot of sours and saisons, 2 of my favorite type of beer.

If tp4 thinks that beer has one taste, then there is a lot of beer out there for tp4 yet to discover...

I like traditional traditional German and Czech beer.
I tasted sour beer once and did not like it.
Not a fan of citrus hops. Of the APA and IPA I've tasted, I've only liked a couple that toned it down a bit.

Oh man, you might like Japanese style rice lagers. Super crisp and extremely refreshing when ice cold w/ a little squirt of lemon.

They also occasionally do gnarly aged stouts. Recently had the five they offer. Years ago they did a pudding stout that was just, hilarious...ever can opener a beer?

I generally go for beers that are bitter and hoppy, but others can be excellent in their own ways. I usually do not like sweet or sour tastes in beer.

In a common situation, everything else being equal, I will just order an IPA.

Traditional Germans are so good.
I cannot stand sours. Even some ciders are too tart for my palette.
Some IPA's are too bitter, but I do enjoy those with a citrus finish, especially ones with high ABV.

If I were stranded on a deserted isle with only one chose of beer it would be Dragon's Milk imperial stout.

[ Specified attachment is not available ]What taste does it have? Beery, I guess? I don't like anything bitter, be that the idiotic "craft beer", or real ales.

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.
