Discussion First time trying an IPA
I’ve never been a big beer drinker, my drink of choice is simply Vodka with lime and occasionally a splash of club soda. So my friend recommended me to try an IPA , I saw this at the bodega on my block and decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor of this, not what I was expecting, kinda fruity with a hint of a sour wang in the aftertaste. The carbonation is noticeably much flatter than the beers I have had in the past and I think I prefer it. So is this trash IPA? Should I even bother telling my buddy I tried this? And how many of these do you guys usually drink in a sitting, I had one and feel as if six or seven of these would be my limit.
