It's not just the hop level for me, the character of the hops matters too.
That is why I like Sculpin, has good flavors and complexities without trying to punch you in the face. Seems like most IPA's are seeing who can get the highest IBU without regard to drinkability.
I think the brewers can take a lesson from wine makers. Quality ingredients and processes make quality drinkability.
I like Dos Equis lager(green bottle) and Leine's Summer Shandy for summer. Gin or Tequilla for the hard stuff.
IPA's and Stouts for winter. Don't get too hung up on ABV as long as it tastes good. Bourbon or Tequilla for the hard stuff.
Well past the days of drinking a six, give me
one or two good ones that I can enjoy.
If you want to drink a bunch, might as well get the water in a can.
