the beer one is rly funny because that's not a real thing? someone tell me if i'm off base here but in states where groceries can sell alcohol they usually carry a wide selection of beer? i have a suspicion that they just think "IPA" means any beer that isn't brewed by a company owned by AB InBev.
I think the craft brewery boom died down, but for a while whenever a brewery opened they sold at least 3 different IPAs, maybe a stout/Belgian sour beer if you're lucky, and sometimes a Pilsener if they felt like going for broad appeal and liked being open for more than 4 years.
IPAs are the easiest beer to not mess up, and that's why they were the most common kind of craft beer. I hate IPAs and they were all named shit like "skullfucker IPA", "unhinged psychopath IPA". I guess I can't get over the bitter part and taste the "citrus" or whatever flavour notes people talk about.
Grocery stores, yeah you can buy whatever, but usually any new beerto try was an IPA.
