Live in Seattle and that’s not true. 95% of them are IPAs and I just want a good Blonde…

This always cracked me up:

The brand is not named after the famous St. Pauli neighbourhood in Hamburg, which is home to one of the world’s largest entertainment and red light districts. Rather, the name comes from the former St. Paul’s Friary [de] in Bremen, which was next to the original brewery established in 1857 by Lüder Rutenberg. There are currently three brands of beer brewed: St. Pauli Girl Lager, St. Pauli Girl Special Dark and St. Pauli Non-Alcoholic Malt Beverage. The beer is only produced for export and is not sold in Germany.

Amber Ale is waaaaaay more complex and generally better than blonde ales imo… Do you like malt forward beers?

Blondes are not completely uncommon here. They generally have one or something similar on tap at most bars/restaurants.

1 blonde and 47 IPAs that taste like compost. Ambers are good too amd Mack & Jack’s African Amber is a good beer to that I can usually find here.

An exaggeration but I do get your point. Bars should probably have maybe two IPAs (one hazy and one standard) and then a host of other beers styles. I’d love to come across more dark lagers personally but those are pretty rare even in places like Chuck’s Hop Shop

Same, except I want something like a bock or doppelbock.
