More IPA's
I'm but a beginner when it comes to IPA's but those of you who recommended I try them during my trip to Montana last year sure did convert me. A few that I've liked was the Blackfoot single malt IPA in Helena Montana. Haven't been able to find it out east. I've also just scored Racer 5 today - awesome. Loose Cannon Hop 3 IPA is also very good. Eben turned me onto Flying Jenny EPA from Greysail which is also very good. Hard to drink regular beer now - I'm a IPA convert thanks to you guys.

Ipa's are where it's at!! :). I'm glad you liked the flying Jenny. Many people don't like it, but I love it and really love that its local. If it wasn't local, I'd go with something like dales pale ale, which is filtered and more hoppy, but I find the flying Jenny just perfect, but a tad undercarbinated.

Dennis, if you like IPAs, you should try Belgian IPAs... Flying Dog Raging Bit@h is really really good. There are others emerging from that style right now too. IPA ingredients with Belgian yeast... yummmm

Thanks for the recommendations. I just found a shop (Sandy's Liquors) that has quite a variety but all the choices made my head spin. Luckily I found the Racer 5 which I had read about. I did see the Lagunitas but haven't found the Flower Power yet. I'll keep an eye out for the others.

They don't call it an IPA anymore, but the Oskar Blues G'Knight is FANTASTIC.. expensive, but oh-so-worth it

I had my last heady topper a few. Ights ago from the batch that Scratch gave me and I have to say that I was wrong in my first impression of it. It really is an awesome IPA.

Just had a Surge Protector IPA. Collab brew by Spider Bite, Blind Bat Brewery, Barrier Brewing, Great South Bay Brewery, Greenport Harbor Brewing Company, Long Ireland Beer Company, Port Jeff Brewing Company, and Blue Point Brewery. It's for Hurricane Sandy relief and to help out Barrier Brewing, which was heavily damaged by the storm. Nice straight forward American IPA. Nice to know I'm making a difference every beer I drink :tooth:.

Spence, I'll have to try that one day. With beers like that, I usually call it quits after 3, or else I won't taste anything else for the next few hours.

don't forget latitude 48 from sam adams...

Ever pick up the Latitude 48 Deconstructed.....that's a good take if you are sitting home on a Friday night.

yep... I only found the Lat 48 de-constructed once... loved the different tastes

Scratch59,
Thanks very much for the Heady Topper and Lagunitas. I'm drinking the Laguintas now after a long day at the CSA event. Very good, definitly has a unique taste and probably the most aromatic IPA I've had so far. Waiting to drink the Heady Topper when my wife is home so we can share it. It says to drink the Topper from the can - is that just a cliche or is it better that way? Nice speaking with you and hope you put the eelbob to good use. Freeze it or put it in some brine until the season starts. Thanks again. DZ |

The Sucks is really a terrific beer. I'm adding that to my seasonal pining cycle right after Celebration. If you like those two I have 2-3 more "gift packs" to send your way. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |
