Craft beer breweries are filled with a bunch of fart sniffing manbun faggots jerking eachother off. The arrogance over beer is incredible in a microbrewery.
I was always into craft beer, but when the ‘white stouts’ and ‘imperial session IPAs’ came out I knew the industry jumped the shark. Now you have to look hard to find a plain brown ale or stout, all of them have shit like cinnamon French toast added to them.
Is it organic non-GMO gluten-free barrel-aged French toast?
I can't understand why stouts aren't more common. You can find 1000 IPAs or beer with random fruit in it but stouts are still really under-appreciated
Just a wild guess here but do stouts cost more in time/effort/resources?
IIRC it's because stouts are far easier to screw up. IPAs are common because the insane level of hops covers up any 'off' flavors.
I know this is a weird question, but I make goats milk soap and I want to incorporate a dark beer in my next experimental batch. Do you have a good, baseline dark beer that isn't over the top expensive that you suggest?
That sounds like a fun hobby. I would go with Guinness, unless one of your local breweries has an Irish stout on tap you can get a growler of. Black Butte Porter from Deschutes is another one easy to find in the western US. I think Sierra Nevada makes a stout still, so they would be another option.
Yep there are three breweries w/in walking distance of my house..used to be a fun place till the (development) barged in.
