    120 minute ipa, not exactly under the radar but certainly gets a ton of hate, spread the love, it really isnt for hop heads cause of the thick syrupy texture but you gotta give them props because it is 21 percent

    O'so Wee on the Lam, Pipeworks Galaxy Unicorn, and Unicorn's Revenge were crazy good! CW BA beers don't get enough love yet either, but thats starting to change. More and more people are getting to try them, and realize they're the real deal.

    I would say anything epic brewing does for the most part, that brewery doesn't get enough attention

    Simtra "Triple" IPA from Knee Deep Brewing. 11.25% ABV disguised like you wouldn't imagine and exceptionally balanced. Watch out Pliny the Younger... I come in bottles... without lines... year-round!!!

    I wouldn't exactly call these "sleepers" considering they are both in the top 10 on BA.... But I guess to each their own. :slight_smile:

    Philadelphia Brewing Co. Joe Coffee Porter. The only highly drinkable coffee beer I'm aware of. Nice.

    I'm torn between that sounding awesome and sort of disgusting. I kind of wish I had picked up a bottle last week when I was at my bottle shop though. It would have been interesting with our corned beef this Sunday.

    Anything by New England Brewing co, they are one of the best breweries in the northeast IMO. Only problem is they are so small that they don't bottle or can everything they make, that and their distribution isn't great.
