Nice, recommending a beer that's not sold outside of WI...Abita Jockamo IPA
New Glarus Hop Hearty IPA
Bells Two Hearted when I want something hoppier
I always forget they don't distribute outside the state. Good on them for keeping all the good beer here!Nice, recommending a beer that's not sold outside of WI...
My personal favorite IPA this summer was Ale Asylum's Ballistic, but that disappeared off of the shelves relatively quickly I spent the rest of the summer drinking the Hop Hearty you mentioned above.
Redbones in Davis Square, Somerville, MA has Pizza Port IPA on tap. Had some last night, delicious.Lots of decent IPAs out there. Afraid I drank something that was amazing and sadly most pale in comparison....
One was from Pizza Port which they do not appear to make any longer plus I can't remember the name exactly... Sad really, by far the best I've had.
The other is Russian River's Pliny the Younger...not the Elder.
Those two for me, were hands down the best.
After that I really enjoy Troeg's Nugget Nectar. Aside from that, homebrewed ones.
Although I still drink many others, hard to turn down an IPA unless it's old....
I was really pleasantly suprised about the Hop Rising, I would reccomend it as well. I'll add in Deschutes Inversion IPA, good stuff.Squatters Hop Rising (far and away my favorite IPA, 9% double...dunno how easy it is to get out of Utah though)
Stone Ruination
Lagunitas IPA is always solid
Bear Flag Racer 5
Squatters IPA
We seem to have a Champlain Valley RM chapter - at least four people if Skinny Mike comes back.I picked up a Smuttynose Big A IPA the other night before I read the recommendations in this thread. Enjoyed it tonight and . . . AWESOME!!!! Going to get more tomorrow.

I will second that...had it on tap just the other night as well. My stand by however is still Victory's Hop Devil.Just enjoyed a Rogue "Yellow Snow" IPA last night - quite good!
I'm gonna have to try this one more time... the two times I've tried it before I found it undrinkably bad.<snip> My stand by however is still Victory's Hop Devil.
Yes, I had that on tap not too long ago and thought it was acceptable.Just enjoyed a Rogue "Yellow Snow" IPA last night - quite good!
I got some racer 5 last night, not bad.Seems like alot of people like the Bear Republic Racer 5. They also make a limited release double IPA called Racer X. GOOD STUFF! And to think that their brew pub is right down the road from me. If you're ever in Nor Cal, you owe it to yourself to visit Bear Republic.
Check out their brews!
