after doing a lot of searching on this forum for different styles and flavours, i've noticed a lot of distaste or a general 'snubbing of the nose' toward people who are interested in making mildler-tasting beers that resemble commercial ones such as corona and bud and lighter lagers. why the hatred? i just read through some threads that talk about adding cat piss to it and keeping it in the sun to get the right tastes and it just seems a bit over the top and almost akin to bullying because it's often made those posters apologise for asking. i hate seeing people having to apologise or lie and say they're making it only for their respective wife or girlfriend. it seems a bit unfair. i'm not the internet police but why just leave the thread alone if you can't or don't want to help?
i love those beer styles (they are, after all, what started me off liking beer in the first place). i'm sure many seasoned brewers much much more experienced than i'll ever be enjoy them too, or have in times passed.
i'm not talking to everyone here, but to those who attack the styles; why bother? you're picking on someone's taste preference like you would be picking on their not liking a spicy food dish.
rant over.
