While I agree about the stouts in heat, I had to compromise with ABV to suitcase space ratio and my wife won't drink DIPAs but will drink stouts.

But yeah-- jelly on the loons. Just had one of the first time in Portland, ME--- lived up to hype.

I don't think beer guys are any worse than wine, tbh.. and it's certainly a cheaper habit! I love me some hops and HEady's prob my all time #1, but barrel aged fruity berliners are prob my fav style. I love sour when it makes the sides of my mouth hurt
