Dogfish (60 or 90) is near the top of widely available IPAs. Stone IPA is the one I'd put clearly above it, but Stone is a megaelite brewery so no shame there.

Maybe some stuff is widely available other places that aren't here, but Dogfish combines accessibility and quality quite nicely in general. The 90 min isn't too bad a deal; it is 9% after all.

Not to mention aroma...

My favorite part of the Lagunitas IPA experience is how much it smells like pot.

Have never had Lagunitas, gonna keep my eyes open

I'm going to need to go get some IPAs

Interesting.

Have you tried their pastel line?

it has a unique hoppy bitterness that is almost a tad fruity and may be the most refreshing IPA, and yes it has a distinct pot-like smell

Abundant in California, Washington, and Oregon, for sure. Been big in Chicago for a bit. I guess I take it for granted. So much so that they're opening a brewpub here. Great for other markets because it could lower transportation costs to the east coast if production goes up here.

It is very Belgian-esque in color and the way the sugars hit the tongue. Turns me into a chronic sipper, so delicious.

Thoughts on this list:

haven't been, considering going

That list looks glorious.

dogfish 60 is fine but not elite. really good well rounded and not overpowering ipa. bells 2hearted is a bit better as is founder's ipa imo. all are about on the same solid tier.

ruination has been surpassed by many recent hardcore bitter beers. used to be the top rung of bitter.

here are some grate strong ipa's:

-southern tier unearthly
-avery maharaja
-epic brewery in salt lake had an ipa but i cant remember. was either called hopulent or imperial.
-weyerbacher double simcoe (very unique flavor with only simcoe hops)
-columbus brewery bodhi ipa (rilly hard to find, only distributed in kegs)

i like the west coast citrusy types:
-green flash west coast ipa
-fathead's head hunter ipa (dunno if they are distributing it very far from ne ohio)
-brew kettle white raja (local to ne ohio, cant even find it here hardly ever. its the goat tho. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/2470/62722)
-flower power from ithaca brewery

also rilly like the sierra nevada northern hemisphere, its a pretty light brew, mebbe not an ipa.

Bells Two Hearted is an awesome IPA.

Hopslam the GOAT DIPA

Im thirsty now.

man, hopslam is too much for me. dunno, i dont find it agreeable.

anyone ever had founders devil dancer? its a triple ipa and 12%. it lowers the boom. says its weighted ibu is over 200.

Devil Dancer is very very good

Devil dancer and dark Horse double Crooked tree are very good.

IPAs are the most overrated form of beer. Brick Store Pub way too hard to get into without an hour+ wait though. Thats my only issue with the place.

approved

Lagunitas Little Sumpin' Sumpin' is my current jam.

Not sure if this is posted in the Super Bowl thread but
