Beer 30

The popularity of IPA's was an over correction in response to how bland most mass produced American beers were. The craft movement was essentially in an arms race to see how hoppy they could make a beer just to prove they weren't the typical American mass market product. They were also relatively easy to produce so they became the signature beer of American craft breweries.

I don't hate them, but they are not nuanced at all. They're a hammer to the taste buds.
