I didn't like beer much at all in university but being drunk wasn't bad (which had me resorting to downing vodka that tasted like white-board marker)... it was because I was probably drinking brand name cheap stuff.

Then I had a craft IPA (the Ottawa-area brewery Big Rig) and I loved it, I developed a taste for those limey hops.

I know there are people upset that craft breweries tend to default to an IPA. But to me, having tried a bunch from different places, I can't go too wrong picking a local craft IPA, they range from just okay to very delicious! Whereas I've been more often disappointed by lagers and other beers which to me taste like funny carbonated water in comparison.
