IPA's are great on a hot day. And yes start low. Very low Work your way up.
I also don't drink IPA with food. Just doesn't work with food like a lager or stout.

Agreed. It is certainly drinkable.

Double IPAs are a weird style. They actually seem less hoppy than regular IPAs, probably because they add so much more malt to up the ABV.

Real Ale makes a nice Double IPA (though they call it an Imperial), too. It is called Three Lions.

I generally don't go for the crazy hop bombs either, but I like the more "normal" expressions of the style. Fortunately, several Louisiana breweries are doing serious work with their IPA offerings, so that might be skewing my perspective a bit. I'll admit that, in the early days of the craft brewing surge, I wasn't going out of my way looking for Stone.

I'm aiming for low ABV on boat days for obvious reasons.

The idolizations of RBG and IPA’s are something I’ll never understand.

IPA’s are freaking gross.

IPA is pretty much the most disgusting beer thete is.
Try one that is mild. I used to hate them and now they are my go to unless it's a boat day. Then I go to a more mild beer for day drinking.

Our hero, hank, mentioned the ibu scale. Go low there.
The IBU scale for the IPA style is 40-70. Roadkill is right. If you want to try the style, stick to something in the low- to mid-40s. as an intro.

EDIT: IBU means International Bitterness Units

Sam Adams also encouraged people to have sex in Catholic Churches. They are assholes.

For real
