It's not the quality of IPAs that turns me off...it's the taste. It almost tastes rancid to me. If I'm buying quality beer (which is seldom...I'll usually settle for Miller Lite) then it's German all the way. And I'm not talking about German substitutes made in the US. England can make certain kinds of beer...and it's always the beer I dislike the most. Germans have beer down to an art. If you ever go to Germany, you'll realize this. Even the beer you can buy at McDonalds there is better than most of the stuff you buy here. I'll stick with Bittburger and Warsteiner (the light, not the dark). IPAs taste like pickled ball sweat to me.
