OK.....for you beer drinkers out there...I want the vote for the BEST IPA ever....mirco brews included.
so let me have it Swampratt |
|
Quoted: see...I recently discovered that I'm an IPA drinker.... the hoppier the better... my current fav is odell IPA...with the elephant on the label Swampratt I am drinking some of that right now. It's pretty good but I like the ACME, Dog Fish, and Lagunitas Maximus better. |

Lately my favorite is Sierra Nevada "Torpedo" but I don't know if there's a best. It's good to go with different beers depending on what you want at the time.
Modus Hoperendi is awesome too and in cans which makes it nice for 4-wheeling and other stuff where you can break botles. |

Quoted:
Dogfish Head 120Min. /thread Yeah, but that is not your typical pick up a few at the grocery store brew. The 120 is sold as a collector item where you can find it, and when you do, it goes in the cellar to be aged. Dogfishead 90 minute is the best regular in my book. Sierra Nevada's Torpedo is quite good as well for the hop heads out there. |

Quoted: There are too many good one out there to determine a BEST. Once you think you know a best you can find ten more that you like. I just revisited one that I picked up in Moab UT from a micro there and it was awesome. This, plus it depends on my my taste and mood and food at the time. I've had a lot of really good but subtly different ones. |

A Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA tops my list on most days.
Today I was at the Rogue Brewery in Newport, OR and had the I2PA (Very good) and a Rogue Yellow Snow IPA, which was much better than I remember from the bottle. I'll have to confirm that tomorrow
Halo IPA and Bridgeport IPA are common on tap here. |
|
Quoted:
Pliny the Elder, Pliny the Younger. Although I've never had either of these, they are both recognized as being the "best" IPAs/DIPAs. The Elder is bottled on a limited basis, The Younger is only available on tap. Of the ones I've had, I'd have to say that DFH 90 min and Victory's Hop Wallop are my favorites. |
