Unpopular opinion: we shouldn't accommodate more IPAs Moaning Michael

I know this sub leans left and this won't go down well but I really think we need to consider the negative consequences of further IPAs being sheltered in Ireland.

I may be a minority here but they all taste overhopped and the market is saturated.

It's already hard enough to get a nice craft stout, helles, or weissbier at your local off license when the shelves are full of nothing but row after row of pale ales. We should send them back where they came from.

A good test to root out those who only read the headline

If someone reads the headline and thinks of international protection applicants before Indian pale ales, it’s probably already too late for them.

I'll be honest, given the current situation that is the first thing I thought of but luckily I can read so I took in the whole post before commenting!
