    I do enjoy a good stout, but somehow I’ve gotten the “stout guy” reputation. I don’t drink enough for it to be an issue, but how do I wiggle out of this horizontally? Something stout-adjacent? I can’t stand IPAs, maybe it’s just a cruel prank.

      Try a schwartzbier or porter. Similar dark flavors but much lighter body.

      Maybe drink some other styles in front of those people? It’s not like being a stout guy is a bad thing. I wish I knew one in person.

        Yeah I mean, I could go to the literal zero effort of just saying I like other things, but this is more fun. I do like them, maybe I’m just a self-loathing stout enjoyer

    I once bought a craft beer stout. It literally tasted like cigarette ash strained through dirty socks. Is that what you’re looking for here?

      It depends on the stout some of them are more bold than others. A lot of people do like the flavor of them though.
