>Hops must be what sells though.
I'm increasingly suspicious that (typically) high relative ABV of high-IBU beers is a significant factor in influencing consumer choice, perhaps moreso than hops enthusiasts would like to admit.
- ericmcer 7y agoI definitely do fast math of $ vs % alcohol and volume. It’s less that I want to be drunk and more of a “super size me” feeling, like I’m getting a better deal.
- anfractuosity 7y agoI haven't looked at IBU, but I found ratings people seem to give beers, increases with ABV - https://www.anfractuosity.com/projects/beer-review-analysis/ https://www.anfractuosity.com/projects/beer-review-analysis/ (see the Alcohol By Volume graph). I'd love to see data on sales of beer in relation to ABV though.
