Just released an IPA.

It's really good. A bit richer than Dales pale ale.
I love it

Burp!

Deviant is a double IPA. Believe it or not, Oscar blues has never had a standard IPA until just now.

At 8% abv, while deviant is called single IPA, it should really be called a double IPA, no?
Perhaps that's why it's called deviant ;)

Does it say session? I think your beef is with their marketing department.

The lines are blurry. gubna is their double at 10% abv, not really big enough to be called a triple. All marketing. Dales could be considered an ipa. None are my favorite. I'll try to get a single of the new one to try.

Their best beer is their Ten-Fidy.....I'm not a big Oskar Blues fan either...but I drink the dales once in awhile.

For me it is dales. I find it lighter than a lot of standard IPA's. I'm not a fan of malty beers.

Just tried their IPA this weekend. Very good....I'd take it over Dales. Has that same big citrusy taste you get from a captains daughter.....just not as in your face.....a lot mellower

It certainly is a sweet citrusy IPA. I can't find it anymore :(

Nice IPA. Probably my favorite Oskar Blues beer. Nothing overly special about it, just a solid drinkable IPA.

That's the key....I still think their Ten Fidy is their best......but you pound those and you wont remain upright for long.

I just had the Pinner on Friday night. Pretty good and easy to drink. I don't have any left to give it a second try though.
