    Why can I not "like" something multiple times?

    Fresh from the brewery there is also a nice hop cheese or "Resin" flavor in there as well. Got to love whole flower hops.

    I'll pick Summit Saga because I can always find it fresh and at a great price. I also love Odell IPA and Surly Furious.

    Ive only had it a couple times, but Maine Beer Co's Lunch IPA is really, really excellent.

    If going by just the label of a standard IPA I would said Darkhorse's Crooked Tree or Bell's Two Hearted Ale.

    1. fresh Flower Power
    2. Schlafly Tasmanian IPA - found some 2week old 6packs at my local discount liquors this past weekend. It's like if there was such a thing as just pure hop juice.
    3. Sculpin

    Probably would have said Fresh Sculpin, Jai Alai, or NJ's own Kane Head High last week but after having the Schlafly Tasmanian (bottled 10/18) this weekend, I would probably give that my vote.
    And since many have mentioned DIPA's also, I would say Enjoy By and Heady as the best DIPA's I have had.

    If you liked Kane's Head High, I recommend you to try Cape May Brewing Co's City to Shore DIPA.

    Jai Alai, Sculpin, Hopslam, Two Hearted, Pliny the Elder.

    Also, ISO:All the Alpine beers that keep being mentioned in here. I should try doing a Nelson clone some time.

    jai alai or Ruination

    I'm not a big fan of IPAs (although I'm warming up to them) but these were exceptional.
