Aging kills freshness. IPAs are best fresh. Over barreling to all hell kills the subtleness of good hops. A good discussion has ensued at a DC tasting today and it seems the consensus is its stupid. |
I promise not to make fun of any religions. |
Hey you started it this time |
Shhhh, we’ll get deleted. |
Yeah I think it’s a bad idea but I’ve had one or two that were good so what the h do I know anyways. |

Brett IPA’s tend to be contradictious considering the two important ingredients, but most of the times, they turn out to be very tasty. |
Of course the original IPAs were barrel aged, but for a modern brewery, unless you are going for something historic deliberately, I tend to agree that barrel aged IPA is a little silly. |
I have had a couple I’ve enjoyed. BA Black IPAs can also be good. |
Depends on the beer. I’ve had some I thought were good though tasted more like a hoppy barleywine or American strong than an IPA. Overall, bad if you want a hoppy beer, but can be okay as something different if done well enough. |
