My interest in ridiculously-hopped beers has waned, as I now look to appreciate the bigger picture when sitting down with any beer. It's just hard to get excited about something that's been run into the ground. They say distance makes the heart grow fonder. In that case, I need a vacation...

Lupulin Overload? For the longest time I wasn't able to look at high-hopped beers without revulsion, that's slowly fading and some of the more mellow PAs and IPAs are tasty to me again. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale never lost its luster to me! So… what’s the opposite of the Lupulin Shift? Lupulin Overload?

Luckily I can still taste the hops in an hoppier beer even when I cannot taste anything else. They make it still worthwhile.
