Bullshit IPA tastes great. It certainly is an acquired taste I suppose like coffee.

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 31 points 8 months ago (2 children)

"acquired taste" mainly means "tastes bad"

you fool, you played yourself.

there's pleasure in bitterness. open yourself to a wider variety of experiences.

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

the world is bitter enough i don't need to put more of it in my mouth

The only taste that's not "acquired" is mothers milk. Everything else is something you learn to appreciate.

jesse-wtf

if you've never liked something the first time you might have some severe and uncommon sensory issues.

[–] Egon@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

Look I saw a YouTube short about "sweet" being the only taste we like from birth because babies have to drink milk and everything else is an acquired taste, which is why liquorice tastes bad to people who don't eat liquorice and who am I to question a random man on youtube?

My problem is I tasted raw hops, and that's all most IPA taste like with no other subtitles. I like some hoppiness, but oof.

It's like, I like basil but you put a quarter cup of dry basil in my tomato soup. I can't.

Coffee has room for other notes. IPA is like getting smashed in the face with a hop stick.

I like tricking people into eating raw hops.
