    For a huge craft beer state, our IPAs don't often get the love they deserve or are overshadowed by the West coast styles.

    Avery Maharaja (especially when aged or fresh hopped)
    Odell IPA
    Odell Myrcennary
    Oskar Blues Deviant Dale's
    Ska Modus Hoperandi
    Telluride Bridal Veil Falls
    Telluride FISHwater Imperial
    Trinity Slap Yer Mammy Double
    Upslope Imperial

    *Note - I highly recommend you check out Avery's Boulder IPA festival. Great selection from in and out of state and you get to mingle with the brewers. Had a nice chat w/ the guys from Telluride who were enjoying the experience (i.e. beer).

    Although not an ipa, I always leave dry dock with a growler of breakwater pale. That beer is probably my favorite in the state.

    Backcountry's Double IPA is coming out this week. Should be on the shelves shortly.
    Pretty gosh-darn good beer.

    I'll be down in Denver this weekend. Hopefully Mr. B's will have the Backcountry IIPA on hand then, never tried it but really want to.

    We should. Tivoli has it now and Alan pinky-sweared us some. Kind of up to their delivery methods, but they usually arrive on Thursdays

    Don't know if it's been mentioned, but strange brewing's 1000 barrel is one of my favorite Colorado beers out there. Rickoli's been rolling out some pretty good high abv ipas too.

    yeah, 1000 barrels is great. Reminded me a lot of Hopslam. Gonna check out Station 26's double ipa this week.

    I love The Jerk
    Bought one from your store last night, not bad at all. Probably have to grab another before they're gone.

    I think they might be gone. Was off today, so I'm getting sporadic updates

    Grapes and Grains on Colorado and Yale. Hard to see from the street, but right next to Pier 1 and King Soopers. Slotted Spoon is across the way = excellent meatballs!

    I used to go there all the time! I lived over in UHills. Love Slotted Spoon. I've since moved further north in Denver so I don't make it down there as much anymore.
