I'd saw off my leg for my grocery store to start carrying something besides shitty IPA's and Budweiser (lemmy.ml)

My comment isn’t disagreeing with you. Only adding my two cents.

I live in an city that is on the top 10 list for breweries per capita in the world. And it’s all IPAs. Maybe 20% is not. And yeah it’s nice that I have 20 beers to chose from that aren’t ipas when I go to a place with 100 taps. I just hate having to sort though it all.

There should be an IPA menu, and a non ipa menu.

Also: IPAs have a lot of sugar content, and combined with alcohol sugar gives me a shitty buzz and a headache. I don’t know how people can drink more than one.

My IPAs and my pilsners finish at the same final gravity. IPAs do not universally have a lot of sugar. It's the same as any other beer of similar alcohol content/starting gravity. If I got rid of the hops, I'd just have a strong English ale.

I believe you. You obviously know more. But it just seems so clear when I drink something crisp and light that I’m not getting that sugar high and headache I associate with strawberry daiquiris. But I get it from IPAs.
