I started on the Imperials, so a normal IPA is a session one to me nowYeah.... so a "session IPA" is meant to refer to its alcohol content rather than its flavour. Being 3-4% booze makes it "sessionable."
Personally I just "session" normal IPAs but I may have a problem.
IPAs can be lovely. What don't you like? Too bitter?I find IPA to be awful. Go weissbier or go home.

It's been a while so I can't say but I do know I haven't found one I like yet.IPAs can be lovely. What don't you like? Too bitter?
Some of the Hazys can be rather mellow, well fruity - hop forward - but not verly bitter.It's been a while

I really like red ales, but they're not exactly common. This one makes up for scarcity by being 2-3 beers at once.
Balter XPA is a good starter onto the stronger (IBU and ABV) IPAsIt's been a while so I can't say but I do know I haven't found one I like yet.
Agree - Classic Kaiju can art! Instant recognition even though I haven't had that one.drools
Don't mind a bit of Kaiju but have been drinking primarily WA beers recently - some good stuff out here at the minute with a lot of breweries kicking some serious goals.
Balter "Eazy Hazy" is my new fav go to. LOVE the Hazy full strength, but it's a bit too much after a couple. And these are a slight bit cheaper to boot.Balter XPA is a good starter onto the stronger (IBU and ABV) IPAs
Yeah, hard to miss a tin of Kaiju on the shelves!Agree - Classic Kaiju can art! Instant recognition even though I haven't had that one.
Beerfarm IPL is probably a good compromise too. And as above, the Hazys.. Might need to pop into the bottlo for some..Balter XPA is a good starter onto the stronger (IBU and ABV) IPAs
I found some decent Balter stuff at Liquorland of all places - was the best there but it was a bit old based on the canned dates. They have some Beerfarm stuff in there, but its also a bit old compared to what I can get down the road.Balter "Eazy Hazy" is my new fav go to.

If you can get it that far over East. One of the best summer beers IMO. IIPL is solid too.Beerfarm IPL is probably a good compromise too. And as above, the Hazys.. Might need to pop into the bottlo for some..
Session beers should just be less ABV for the same style. Session IPA beers will tend to be lighter due to less malts in the wort but should carry the same hop forward character as an IPA.Somebody help me here. IPA is heavily hopped and session beers have a lighter flavour so what is a session IPA?
Wash your mouth out....I find IPA to be awful. Go weissbier or go home.

It's brilliant branding. I had no idea what they were but looked for one after I saw the 8 bit nerd monsters which being a nerd I had to try. That I've been into every single one of their beers I've tried (including their pilsner ffs) is just icing on the cake.Agree - Classic Kaiju can art!

You've sold me! Lots of sours I try once, and they mostly taste like tangy dishwater. Balance with sours must be tough. Just like I find anything with smoked malts is risky, unless they use it very sparingly.Really tasty balance of quite lactic sourness with some floral hop character, and nice body that many other Aussie brew
