IPA...don't like. Don't like most lagers and I find wheat beers and indeed most light beers boring at best. I LOVE good porters and stouts however and no one was more surprised than I to discover that. Not all stouts are bitter like Guinness - I do not enjoy bitter or very hoppy. Fruity beers? I generally don't care for them, but there have been a couple of selections. Malty is good! Ale is good, when it is good. I've tasted so many this year that looked promising, but many were too weak in taste. My favorite dark ale is Black Toad that I get at Trader Joe's...it almost fizzes on the tongue
