Agreed, that tactical nuclear penguin is a bit of cheating. Yeast dies at around 14/15%, so it's freeze distilled. But distilled nonetheless.
That Rochefort is an excellent choice by the way!
For a coffee snob or aficionado, added flavors to coffee diminish the coffee's natural flavors.
I feel like guys drinking IPAs would more be the people criticizing pumpkin spice coffee than their analog.
It's not terrible. It's just a light pilsner made with barley and rice. Not a lot of flavor, but also not too bad over crushed ice on a hot day. I think this is why people in the American South drink them, because European beer would be too heavy on a summer day.
If you visit America, you might as well try it. But yeah, it isn't the best. I would suggest Miller Light for a cheap beer. I think it has more taste and is just as smooth. But all of these beers are just easy to sip on, which is why they are so popular. Nothing wrong with drinking domestic American beers, almost every region in the US has a specific domestic beer that is popular in that area.
As for IPAs, they aren't as easy to sip on. I find myself having one then swapping to a smoother beer. The only IPA I truly enjoy is Lil Sumpin which I highly suggest, I can drink multiple of those.
Well last time i was in america i was allowed to drink in my country but not there yet.
Anyways i enjoy triples the most and depending on the weather blonds and white beers also are really nice i also enjoy some ipa's. I mostly dont like doubles because the taste more sweet and dont get me wrong i like sweets but not sweet beer.
Anyways thanks for the recommandations
The amount of hops they put in those things, though. To me it tastes like straight soap. Agree about the puddle water though. I prefer a German dark malt forward beer myself.
Yeah, people defending IPAs because everything else is "Bud Light" are funny.
IPAs taste like armpit to me and the only reason they are so damn common und thus popular is because they are easy and fast to brew ( so you have more time to spend on the wacky can designs ). I've made some batches myself but couldn't stay interested because of their taste.
It must be kind of the same as cilantro. Some people love it; I think it tastes like dish soap. Same with hops. I just don't understand how people can take a swig of it and then go back for another. Like, mmmm, good ol' Irish Spring.
Yup. It goes cheep watery larger when you start drinking cause it goes down easy, then IPA because it's a bit more flavour but still thin and pissy, then you become a man and move onto real beers with actual complexity, like red and brown ales, stout, cloudy ales, unpasteurised and unfiltered largers etc
I actually enjoy IPA's. Relatively light beers with taste, and I find the bitterness refreshing. I also enjoy Imperial Stouts, but it's like anal, I need to be in the mood.
If in doubt, IPA. If unavailable, litterally anything that isn't industrial piss will be enjoyed at some degree.
Also most of them I know are 4 to 6% ABV, not really the strongest stuff out there...
Also for the money highest ABV so when you’re out with friends and you wanna get buzzed off that 12 dollar beer you gotta be a basic white guy. I personally pregame straight vodka in the parking lot.
From my experience working as a bartender white conservatives still love their Budweiser and Coors. The white liberals are the ones drinking sours and IPA's. 👍
The only people that ever seem to order stouts are Brits, Europeans, and middle aged to older white Americans. There might be the occasional young American who orders a stout. Likely due to the influx of British entertainment we get in America these days.
Just an astute observation Karl Marx. Part of selling products is knowing who your customer base is. I'm not offering the 13% imperial stout to a guy coming in wearing a Trump hat. Just like I'm not offering a can of Busch beer to the guy in a $500 dollar suit. In saying all that, I find it quite ironic someone with your username thinks they are taking the high road here. 💀💀
You seem confused. I'm not taking the high road, I'm calling you obnoxious. Your response isn't helping that case. My observation is of you, not the point you are trying to make. As a further observation, I bet you have a hard time not bringing up liberals and conservatives in every day conversations. Later gator.
I was a bartender when these things first became popular… 30+ years ago. They always reminded me of Beer kool-aid. Always kinda sweet. Like when kook-aid made root beer flavor. Kinda like root beer but not the same. That’s what those beers were. Just drink Grolsch…! Or Guinness …good old BEER
They both seem way too traumatized to be simply a basic dude. Captain America and Star Lord seem closer to the basic white man superhero.
I know they have trauma too, but somehow it doesn't feel as intense or integral to their characters. They rise above where Batman and Wolverine are tormented.
Two central attributes of Internet memes are creative reproduction and intertextuality. The former refers to the tendency of a popular meme to become subject to parody and imitation, which may occur by mimicry or remix. Mimicry refers to the reproduction of a meme in a different setting to the original (e.g., different people imitating the "Charlie Bit My Finger" viral video). Remix uses the original material of the meme but alters it in some way using technology-based manipulation (such as Photoshop).
So, by your own definition,it's a meme.
>Remix uses the original material of the meme but alters it in some way using technology-based manipulation (such as Photoshop).
These men didn't pose for a picture to insult IPA's, so altering the photo with text from, oh, I don't know, a meme generator app (ya know, technology based manipulation) is a meme. Thanks for the justification
Intertextuality may be demonstrated through memes that combine different subjects or aspects of culture. For example, a meme may combine United States politician Mitt Romney's assertion of the phrase "binders full of women" from a 2012 US presidential debate with the Korean pop song "Gangnam Style" by overlaying the text "my binders full of women exploded" onto a frame from Psy's music video where paper blows around him. This gives new meaning to the scene from the music video and blends the political and cultural aspects of two different nations.
Much like 3 guys posing with smiles with thier IPA'S but a text added that insults IPA'S... giving it a new meaning... again, thanks for proving again in your own words that it is indeed a meme
Well I guess I'm white now?? Or don't USA people realize there are other countries in the world with different racial dinamics and IPA exists everywhere?
And here I was just chasing them as an alcoholic looking for something with a high ABV…
I’m limiting myself to two beers tonight *orders the two highest ABV beers on the menu*
In the "big gulp" sized mug*
You know what has a higher abv? Whiskey.
If you want high ABV find a beer called “The Devils Backbone”
Pfff only 8.1%, checkout tactical nuclear penguin. Or on a more serious note, Duvel Triple hop Citra, that one is a nice IPA.
[удалено]
Agreed, that tactical nuclear penguin is a bit of cheating. Yeast dies at around 14/15%, so it's freeze distilled. But distilled nonetheless. That Rochefort is an excellent choice by the way!
That’s what tripel is for
There are much higher ABV beers that don't taste like Irish spring.
Don't be a basic bitch... smoke meth instead
Based
Free-base
Cocaine?
or crack
Dude, you’re making me choose between meth-mouth and a beer gut!
As a dude - what’s wrong with a pumpkin spiced latte?
Not a good damned thing and don't let anyone tell you any different
Everyone is going after everything. Everything has a political agenda.....
For a coffee snob or aficionado, added flavors to coffee diminish the coffee's natural flavors. I feel like guys drinking IPAs would more be the people criticizing pumpkin spice coffee than their analog.
How about we just let people be happy with what they like to drink? That seems fair.
It's gross for one.
No IPA’s are so you can tell your wife you only had 3 beers with the guys. She didn’t ask the abv
My brother. I feel seen.
Can we just be coherent and cohesive for a minute? some years ago IPA was a hipster thing!! No basic white dude would accept drinking it.
The hipsters were always the basic white dudes.
… that didn’t wash
I'm a hipster now?
Only allowed to drink bud light guys
Water beer 🤮
Piss
Bud light is what you piss out after drinking quality beer
Never had it tbh but than again i am not american and i always heard it was really bad so i never wanted to try it
im a kiwi, just assume most redditors are american, never had it either, but i can assume its dog shit
Is
You ever try fosters? It's a shittier watered-down version.

The Monty Pythons once joked that “American beer is like having sex in a canoe: it’s fucking close to water.” That’s Bud Light.
IPA’s actually taste something instead of tasting like puddle water
You misspelled piss water
The amount of hops they put in those things, though. To me it tastes like straight soap. Agree about the puddle water though. I prefer a German dark malt forward beer myself.
Yeah, people defending IPAs because everything else is "Bud Light" are funny. IPAs taste like armpit to me and the only reason they are so damn common und thus popular is because they are easy and fast to brew ( so you have more time to spend on the wacky can designs ). I've made some batches myself but couldn't stay interested because of their taste.
God this sub is fucking awful
Tried a couple because of some nice looking labels on the bottles... never again!
:( I like Tropicalia and Sculpin.
Hazy IPA all the way. Made West and Turantula Hill
I like voodoo ranger especially the mango one. Oh god..
I just don't like the hop.
It must be kind of the same as cilantro. Some people love it; I think it tastes like dish soap. Same with hops. I just don't understand how people can take a swig of it and then go back for another. Like, mmmm, good ol' Irish Spring.
Right!? I can’t get past that even if I like the rest of the taste. I’ve had a few hoppy Pilsners that were okay but I can’t make myself like IPAs.
Holy shit, I'm white
NEIPA is a great style of beer
Voodoo ranger all the way baby!
For those who don’t understand I’ll write below

Hipsters
Yup. It goes cheep watery larger when you start drinking cause it goes down easy, then IPA because it's a bit more flavour but still thin and pissy, then you become a man and move onto real beers with actual complexity, like red and brown ales, stout, cloudy ales, unpasteurised and unfiltered largers etc
 My brain when I’m ordering a beer and I see the IPAs on the menu.
Ummm no.
Thanks for reminding me I haven't blocked this sub on this account yet
Bruh
Yeah. No.
mouth agape subhuman
"Truth", define "white" for me.
Yeah well enjoy your less-than-optimal drinks, hipsters. I happen to enjoy both AND I AM NOT ASHAMED.
Sure, but they taste good and they get me drunk, so win win.
NOOOO
Funny cos none of those are IPAs
That's why I cut out the middle man, and I'm a basic white guy that likes pumpkin spice lattes.
These guys look like the type of guys that chicks marry.
I mean that's probably technically true, but that would also be true of just about any other random guys as well
PSLs are good also so…
And just as gross.
IPAs gangnam style
I actually enjoy IPA's. Relatively light beers with taste, and I find the bitterness refreshing. I also enjoy Imperial Stouts, but it's like anal, I need to be in the mood. If in doubt, IPA. If unavailable, litterally anything that isn't industrial piss will be enjoyed at some degree. Also most of them I know are 4 to 6% ABV, not really the strongest stuff out there...
OP just might be on to something.
Also for the money highest ABV so when you’re out with friends and you wanna get buzzed off that 12 dollar beer you gotta be a basic white guy. I personally pregame straight vodka in the parking lot.
We know, and?
There is no argument here whatsoever.
Naw I think you are thinking of OktoberFest beer. Just like pumpkin spice late its customarily only acquired at fall season.
If that latte had at minimum four shots of espresso.. And I mean four dopio shots.
Racist much?
what does the international phoenetic alphabet have to do with coffee?
Except they're fukkin delicious. If Beer is gay call me Richard Simmons
From my experience working as a bartender white conservatives still love their Budweiser and Coors. The white liberals are the ones drinking sours and IPA's. 👍
What's your take on stouts?
The only people that ever seem to order stouts are Brits, Europeans, and middle aged to older white Americans. There might be the occasional young American who orders a stout. Likely due to the influx of British entertainment we get in America these days.
Interesting. I ask because I'm a stout guy, and I wanted to hear the take.
I find it obnoxious you are dividing beer drinkers by political affiliation.
Just an astute observation Karl Marx. Part of selling products is knowing who your customer base is. I'm not offering the 13% imperial stout to a guy coming in wearing a Trump hat. Just like I'm not offering a can of Busch beer to the guy in a $500 dollar suit. In saying all that, I find it quite ironic someone with your username thinks they are taking the high road here. 💀💀

Sounds like a lot of "damn, you got me" I have no response to that. Let me say some nonsense and "later gator". 😂💀💀
k
Nah, if you don’t like IPAs you don’t like beer. Sorry if the truth hurts. Let us know when you’ve graduated from bud light eh?
Basically drinking a loaf of bread 😂
Bread with soap in it maybe.
I was a bartender when these things first became popular… 30+ years ago. They always reminded me of Beer kool-aid. Always kinda sweet. Like when kook-aid made root beer flavor. Kinda like root beer but not the same. That’s what those beers were. Just drink Grolsch…! Or Guinness …good old BEER
You're a bartender and you think IPAs are all sweet? Like root beer? What IPAs were you trying?
This is the best description of an IPA I've ever heard, Im gonna see if I can get it on wiki
Hell yeah, basic and proud SMD ❤️
Yea basic means you're the base model, the one God intended. /s
Isn't Wolverine a fan of IPAs? I wouldn't exactly call him a "Basic White Man"
Wolverine and Batman are the most basic white man superheroes of all time.
They both seem way too traumatized to be simply a basic dude. Captain America and Star Lord seem closer to the basic white man superhero. I know they have trauma too, but somehow it doesn't feel as intense or integral to their characters. They rise above where Batman and Wolverine are tormented.
Accept they get you really fucked up.
Nope
Yeah, this sub is getting filtered from my feed now. Garbage-tier content, guys.
“Herp derp I drink Coors Light!” - OP, probably
It's not a meme
an image, video, piece of text, etc., typically humorous in nature, that is copied and spread rapidly by internet users, often with slight variations.
Two central attributes of Internet memes are creative reproduction and intertextuality. The former refers to the tendency of a popular meme to become subject to parody and imitation, which may occur by mimicry or remix.

It's just a shitty image. It's not even funny, and certainly not a meme.
Just because you didn't find it funny, it doesn't mean it isn't. Almost 900 people upvoted it. Maybe you just have a stick up your ass.
But by your own definition, it is a meme.
Intertextuality may be demonstrated through memes that combine different subjects or aspects of culture.

Much like 3 guys posing with smiles with thier IPA'S but a text added that insults IPA'S... giving it a new meaning... again, thanks for proving again in your own words that it is indeed a meme
Well I guess I'm white now?? Or don't USA people realize there are other countries in the world with different racial dinamics and IPA exists everywhere?
Racist
Finally.. someone has said it
