Anyone can get me 1 or 2 bottles? I will pay for yours also. Anyone willing to help and ship 1 or 2 bottles to the Netherlands?

If you are someone who regularly drinks only Bud, Miller, or Coors products then an IPA is going to be a shock to your system. If you are new to ales, I would start out with a blonde ale first, then move up to a pale ale, then after you've begun to really like those, then you move to IPAs.

This.

If the 60 Minute was "nasty", then IPA's are not for you. 60 Minute is TAME compared to a lot of IPAs.

I haven't had a Bud, Miller or Coors in years. I do however want my Beer to taste like BEER! Most of this flavored shit can go to the way side if you ask me. Give me a nice Grolsh, Rolling Rock or a Heineken and I'll be just fine.
I certainly don't want my beer to taste like pumpkin, or cider for christ sake!!! So far the best "craft" beer (wanna be beer) has been Pranqster......

Dogfish Head is great IMO. Just kind of got into it in the past year. I love their 60 minute and 90 minute. 120 Minute is great too if I feel daring. Those double IPA drinks floor me though.



I would really love to get my hands on this stuff.

I will be in Miami in January. Already printed out the places where dogfish will be available so I can finally try the other dogfish beers.

I really hope to get some help in getting a few bottles of pearl jam beer to the Netherlands. Maybe I would even trade Lost Dogs vinyl for this beer.

Grolsch, Rolling Rock or Heineken as well as your mainstream light beers are all lagers which are much lighter than ales. Lagers are typically what comes to mind when people talk about "tasting like beer". Everyone's palate is different and a lot of people like the "taste of beer". I personally like the complexity of ales especially the hoppy ones and the fruit-infused ones. I've never had Pranqster but in looking it up it's a Belgian Ale which are typically lighter and less hoppy than American pale ales so that's probably why you like it.

I absolutely love me some Heineken, Corona, or Lone Star every now and again, but I keep going back to craft beer for serious flavor.

And this is why an IPA is not recommended for you.

In all seriousness, try another type of beer like a blonde ale or regular pale ale. Or maybe even a light wheat ale.

IPAs are very hoppy. They're not for everyone.
