“Sometimes I just want beer that tastes like beer.”
I keep hearing this, or variations thereof, from craft-beer drinkers around me, and I’ve uttered it under my breath a number of times when confronted with the latest over-the-top experimental brew (I’m looking at you, exotic fruit milkshake IPA). We can argue over the specifics of what qualifies as just plain beer, but the answer, in any case, is pilsner.
