Default What's your favorite IPA?

IMO, can't go wrong with any IPA. I tried one a few weeks ago when I was home from R&R that was memorable though, I want to say it was called Alaskan IPA? Don't really remember though since it wasn't my first beer of the night

My highest rated IPA on ratebeer is Bell's Two Hearted followed closely by Stone IPA and Troegs Nugget Nectar. I rated Three Floyds Dreadnaught a bit higher but that is a DIPA. Of those 4, I'd definitely grab a Troegs right now though.

So many IPA and DIPAs to drink. I love some Maharajah from Avery, but I wish they bottled it in a 12oz bottle.

on #1 & #2, I've never had a Troegs, so I'll be looking out for that.

I'd fill out the list with Victory Hop Devil and (in the DIPA category) a new entrant: SN Torpedo. Tupper's Hop Pocket Ale used to be my #1, but they changed the recipe a few years ago and the brewmaster from Old Dominion Brewery moved up to Victory, iirc. So now it's just "eh."

I've been drinking a lot of Racer 5 recently. Very good balance between hops & malt.

I've been impressed with Victory Hop Devil; recommended. Dogfish needs know introduction, but I find them to be a "little much" to drink more than one. Not price-wise, just too filling.

Someone sent this to me the other day, looks like Hop Pocket's making a comeback!
