There is certainly that with the mega high IBU IPAs. Bruh this has 94,000 IBU, it's so good! To those people, I like to stick it them by saying never send a beer to do a whisky's job

Like coffee, it is an acquired taste. Large brands aren't very good. They may have a good beer in their lineup, but it's rare.

I believe that basically anything that is alleged to be an acquired taste is only professed to be enjoyed due to a combination of social pressure, addiction, and cope.

Ok but you can still catch me eating olives out the jar at 2 am and I'm sure as hell enjoying it
