I have to agree. It's not that I don't like a good IPA but there are other amazing beers out there! I know a couple of co-workers who are of the mindset "the hoppier, the better" and would probably drink the aforementioned dog piss if it were hopped within an inch of its life!
But it seems as if some people won't try anything else. It's either an IPA or nothing at all. (Well...maybe a Guinness on St. Patrick's Day...)
There are some amazing wheats, tripels, bocks (I'm partial to Shiner and not just because I live in Texas!) and stouts. Yes...there are other stouts out there besides Guinness (I know...blasphemy!)
And don't diss the Shandy either. (BTW...Leinenkugel isn't the only Shandy out there...)
Mix it up a little. Expand your gustatorial horizons. Be the one guy in the crowd that DOESN'T order the super triple IPA.

My 2 cents. YMMV...
