Your phrasing in the title though, spot on.
And no wonder he doesn't like 'fancy' beer; he spent all that time drinking Mikkeler.
He's not wrong. He does say he likes all the good beer, but doesn't like drinking it on the regular.
And to be fair, he has a great point. Black Tuesday and BA Abraxas are good, but nobody's ever said, "**** it's hot, I need to pound back a refreshing pint of adjunct stout to cool me off" while watching sports or whatever.
I'd even argue that the reason why "Vermont-style" IPAs came in vogue was because every stupid neckbeard wanted an IPA that was "closer to water" than a lot of the "you are not ****ing worthy you unxxxtreme ****" hopbombs that were prevalent a couple years ago, and still are, to an extent.

Pretty much. He probably doesn't give a **** either.So he's uneducated on what's out there and writing as if he is an expert. Basically your typical internet *******.
Quirk is dead on in his assessment.Discussed this in another location (cc: RochesterAaron). Chang makes great food (I haven't personally had it, but I hear good things, and I like what I have cooked out of his cookbook), but singling out beer in this conversation is retarded.

Pacifico, brah.Pretty much. He probably doesn't give a **** either.
Neither do I - Tecate may be piss, but it's refreshingly delicious piss.
Wait, since when was it hipster to hate on craft beer, not drink it? Have I been doing things wrong all along?

I'll eat Taco Bell with my fancy barrel aged saison.Yeah and I don't want a $200 smoked pork butt either.

So a fancy chef doesn't like fancy beer. Is this like rain on your wedding day?
But 95 percent of the time, I don't want something that tastes delicious.
David Chang is trying to hard.
At least Chang is honest that he has a dreadful beer palate. Tony Bourdain tries really hard to pretend he can appreciate good stuff.

Gordon Ramsay wins them all. He's like a child. (Edit: I should add, the dude peddling beers does not help the cause)

Whatever. Chefs are servants who shouldn't be famous anyway.
