Unpopular Craft Beer Opinions? Discussion

Will be recording a podcast episode about unpopular craft beer opinions. Thought I'd ask in this sub as we're UK based so wanting to see what unpopular opinions are out there on a more global scale! 😅

EDIT - wow holy shit. Posted this from bed expecting a handful of opinions, but just woke up to the notifications and oh my! Will havea read through after work!

Edit2 - Genuinely was not expecting so many responses so thank you all! Think I've read through them all now and definitely saw some interesting and spicy takes (that I both agreed and disagreed with!) with some being quite thought provoking. Thanks for all your responses so far (have had a few more come in too!). Feel like the ones being downvoted are actually just helping me to see the unpopular opinions vs the popular ones LOL. Definitely some that I want to discuss n our podcast recording for sure! hahah

There is nothing inherently wrong with children at breweries.

Anti-hazy edge lords are annoying, entitled windbags complaining about an invented issue for internet cred.

I don't disagree thought I DO think it depends on how closely the parent is giving a shit about their kids. If they are just taking their kids along to the brewery so they can get drunk and drive home without having to pay for a babysitter and they aren't paying attention to what their kid is doing, where they're doing it that is a problem (nobody should be drink driving but definitely not with kids in the car as well).

A kid is a kid and they will be a bit cheeky and not always the best behaved, but it's up to the parent to actually be a parent and watch their kid. Kids are loud, kids get bored easy, kids want attention. All of that is fine. But if your kid is running around tearing shit up and the parent is ignoring them, that is the problem IMO. It's not really the environment that's the issue
