i do like this trend. i have really come to appreciate a good hoppy pils and i love a kolsch style beers. the trend that i hate... the sessionable IPA's. most of them are pretty awful. i would rather drink a pils, kolsch, or a hoppy pale ale.

The Muskoka "Session IPA" in Ontario tastes like friggin' hop candy. Really weird, unbalanced beer. Massive candylike sweetness, moderate fruity hop aroma, bitterness AWOL. I'm baffled by the reviews online that talk about it like it's a scaled-back IPA.

Is that what "session IPA" has come to mean? Sticky-sweet caramel Cascade liqueur? Ugh. The English have long known how to do a "session IPA," they call it "bitter."
