From that perspective, I will say my current favorite is Long Trail, and I also like Harpoon... I haven't tried any of those beers that come in a wine bottle.... got to find out what I'm missing one of these days. When I think about it, it's really because I never have the right "situation". (a nice setting, friends to share with etc.) My GF and I both work nights (for example, last night, tonight, and so on) so we never host and rarely attend any summer goodness. 95% of the beer I drink is at home, alone, at 8 in the morning...  |
Before you go buying the IPAs in the 750ml bottles, know that most of them are small batch or specialty IPAs, and are usually more "extreme" than most. Your best bet is to hit a good restaurant/bar with a lot of taps or an extensive bottle menu, and try a few different ones.
