Deadspin (or, Drunkspin more specifically) offered up this odd borderline-screed against people who (apparently) turn their nose up at Sierra Nevada pale ale.
But anyone who drinks modern American craft beer yet denies him- or herself the pleasure of what may still be the best large-scale pale ale brewed in this country is either a poseur or, more charitably, someone with a burnt-out palate and an over-reliance on novelty.
Thankfully I have yet to meet such a person. I did very much enjoy the phrasing in this bit of humility, though:
This is why I just talk about my own opinions on things—because it’s the most civil way I can think of to avoid haranguing the rest of you for your opinions, which are often incorrect insofar as they are often not my own.
