More of a dopplebock or weizenbock guy here, at almost room temp... Have a Spaten Optimator almost every evening after work,
and love Weihenstephaner Korbinian when I can get it - bassturds at the store haven't had any in months. Ayinger Celebrator is great, but too much $$ for more than an occasional treat.
But did have a couple of two hearteds when visiting gf's kin in Minnesota that might be my gateway to finally appreciating an ipa. Had previously tried some by my favorite breweries and had to hold my nose to down the stuff
After hearing for years that American breweries make schit beer because that's what Americans want, discussions like this give me hope
