Live in Seattle and that's not true. 95% of them are IPAs and I just want a good Blonde.....

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 4 points 1 year ago

Same, except I want something like a bock or doppelbock.

Blondes are not completely uncommon here. They generally have one or something similar on tap at most bars/restaurants.

1 blonde and 47 IPAs that taste like compost. Ambers are good too amd Mack & Jack's African Amber is a good beer to that I can usually find here.

An exaggeration but I do get your point. Bars should probably have maybe two IPAs (one hazy and one standard) and then a host of other beers styles. I'd love to come across more dark lagers personally but those are pretty rare even in places like Chuck's Hop Shop

Amber Ale is waaaaaay more complex and generally better than blonde ales imo.. Do you like malt forward beers?

[–] Pistcow@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yarp. Theres lots of good beers out there, but the vast majority are IPAs at the moment.
