tell this to my 7.5 abv blueberry gose stout, hah!

I mean give me a good imperial stout or a double ipa any day. Much more intense flavor, and the higher abv means i dont have to chug 3 just to feel something, or drink 12 over the course of a night. I can sip 3 beers all night long and be great.

Actual ale > American style fruit juice ipa

Any beer that isn't strong was designed to be that way for various reasons, and all of them rooted in profit. Counterpoint: strong beers get the job done quicker and with less dishware to clean after (exc. eventual consequences of inebriation), not to mention that they were invented to cow the workforce with fortified slumber off-hours. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Cheers!
