You'd really love it over here man. It's an IPA haven. My preference is
with stouts, porters, imperial stouts. My favorite mainstream brand is
Arrogant ******* Ale and Stone's Smoked Porter. Things like that. I've
had a milk stout, not too bad.

Right now it's really trendy to have fruit IPA's, sours, etc. I tasted a
raspberry ganache stout after work. Barf.
