Don't get me wrong.
I do like some hoppy craft beers but not the ones that hit you across the forehead with a baseball bat.
I supped half a gallon today of a wonderful craft beer with a grapefruity/melonish tang and only about 5.4% on the Richter scale.
But on a week-long road trip around the Florida Panhandle earlier this year I drank nothing but the same-old-same,old hoppy IPAs with snazzy names and funky beer fonts.
But basically I was paying a premium for some microbrewery to produce exactly the same bland IPA hop-bomb as the next microbrewery 50 miles down the road.
In the end I just drank Yeungling.
Tasty and reliable.
