IPA marketing head laughing like a captain planet villain as they watch a gorgeous package design trick yet another unsuspecting fool into thinking THIS one won't just taste like hops

Its not the hops that I find distasteful its the resinous pineyness, I don't even always hate it but its so often atrocious and one note, give me a wheat beer instead

It's funny to note in this context that hops and cannabis are genetic cousins because yeah The markup is all paying for the ridiculous packaging
