Same as here all IPA varieties. Tropical haze one would appeal.
Even the can art is similar.

Hi Zardnaar,
If you don't mine me asking, what region of the U.S. (or world?), do you live?

Gordo by Clown Shoes - "Imperial Pumpkin Stout, brewed with a variety of spices and pumpkin puree to provide authentic seasonal spice on top of a rich and flavorful malt profile. WhistlePig Rye Whiskey barrel aging supplements those flavors with a complex array of unique barrel-imparted notes."
It's a really good stout with just enough pumpkin. Beer Advocate has it as a 91=Outstanding (4.14/5) which seems about right. Joining the top tier of my pumpkins

Too many recently, or a change in taste?

Branches out more and discovered better options. I swear 80% of craft beer is just IPA variants. Had one you've pretty much had them all the main difference is just what flavour they've added to the beer. One hazy IPA tastes pretty much the same as the next IPA. The cheap ones are just kinda watered down but you're paying the premium price. May as well drink a good Eurolager vs a bad IPA or APA.
A hazy IPA vs a Hazy APA both similar but the APA doesn't has as much bitterness.
And it's kinda hard to drink a few as well sometimes you might just want something that's easy to drink.
So yeah definitely leaning towards Eurolagers and APAs and pale ales vs IPAs. And not all the weird stuff works what flavour of ass have you added to ruin a perfectly good IPA?
Just make the can look cool and some hipster will lap it up. Hoppy pilsners also are becoming a thing.
