Porters, brown ales, Ambers, and stouts are fucking great.

I like IPAs, Porters, and Stouts.
I keep trying to like Sour beers and it just isn’t happening. I enjoy the first few sips and then can’t finish it.
there are a couple of sours I like, like New Belgium's Sour IPA but that's likely due to the hoppiness. Wicked Weed has their Funkatorium sours place here and I've been a few times and all the ones taste very similar. No way to tell that this one has raspberry and this one has mango and lychee.
All lagers are session lagersI like Mexican beers and session lagers.
Also, at least historically, all stouts are porters but not all porters are stouts. "Stout" referred to the strength, much like ordering a "bitter" in the UK will still indicate a particular style of ale.
I'd think they're probably differentiated now, but I'm not entirely clear how. I don't think it's consistent
But yeah, I'd never call a Guinness Stout a porter
I can enjoy pretty much any beer style but sours I don’t enjoy a lot (but I’ll drink them). I also find sweet styles like heavily fruited ales or chocolate stouts are generally gross because they’re way too sweet.

non-wheat sours are my new go-to. yum
seems to me that it's pretty easy to avoid any particular style of beer. just stop buying IPAs if you don't like them
I like the non-wheat sours
I've complained about the dominance of IPAs several times -- I guess it's the easiest to brew re: margin of error or something
it's probably been more than 5 years since I picked up a six-pack of a stout or porter
