Yeah, IPAs are way too popular. The issue is the people who "like IPAs" aren't willing to try anything else. They'll try a hazy or double IPA, even though those are very different from a west coast IPA, but they won't try the saison, barleywine, or anything else. It forces breweries to cater to them because more adventurous beer drinkers will still drink an IPA.

It's better where I am (VA), but IPAs still rule. There's one brewery in particular that has somewhere around 20 taps, but there's only at most 10 non-IPAs, usually fewer. I don't go there very often.

I've written off IPAs entirely at this point, give me literally anything but lol. It just ends up always being tart/sour/fruity with almost a grittiness to them. I've never been the biggest fan of ciders which is what IPAs reminded me of when they first started getting popular in my area around 2015-2016. Never liked them then but I'd try one every once in a while cause people are always raving about one.

Same here and everywhere I visit in the US. One brewery will have 5 different IPAs. And the people in the comments here - "There's variety! The stores are full of different IPAs!"
