I guess I should've known better, but I've been shocked how many medical professionals are wildly anti-pedestrian (GF works in a hospital, so my social circle here is mostly nurses)

Remember Elon Musk's ambitious sales promise for the Cybertruck? Yeah, that didn't happen.

It may be hard to understand, but IPAs are only the most popular beer style in the U.S. because nobody likes them or buys them.

Not gonna go line-by-line bc who cares but to note a particularly grating section: this has cause/effect almost exactly wrong. The author isn't working with up-to-date facts about the industry, and is making the mistake (?) of arguing that the things he likes are the things that are popular. No!

There are a few simple steps the craft beer industry can take to immediately address its downturn. For starters, it must abandon the I.P.A. arms race. Craft beer’s obsession with hops has gone too far, as what started as a rebellion against bland lagers has spiraled into a bitter, boozy blur. Double I.P.A.s. Triple I.P.A.s. Hazy. Juicy. Dank. West Coast. New England. Most taste like pine resin with a splash of grapefruit pith, and not in a good way.
Craft breweries also cranked up the alcohol: 10 percent to 12 percent alcohol by volume is common now, more than double a standard beer. Dogfish Head’s 120 Minute I.P.A. hits 18 percent — a sweet, heavy nightcap. But beer isn’t bourbon. You don’t swirl it in a snifter and reflect on your childhood. You drink a few, with friends, and it’s supposed to refresh, not knock you out. Brewers chasing complexity are losing the people who just want something cold, crisp and repeatable. I love a good I.P.A., but bring back the pilsner, the amber, the pale ale, or reinvent the lager, as many have.
