Even beers that you might describe as not tasting of hops almost certainly have hops in them; they're just not there in as great an amount as you find in IPAs. You can pass any hoppy beers you can't stand over to me, because I will drink them with pleasure. Mmm. Delicious bitterness.

I believe that IPAs were invented by beer snobs looking to make sure there was going to be something that other people wouldn't like, just so they could claim to really have developed an <i>appreciation</i>, you know, a real <i>understanding</i> of the merits and qualities and blah blah blah DIE IN A FIRE BEER HIPSTER.
