    Elevated is an amazing IPA, seek it out!

    Love Swami's IPA and Two Hearted is right up there, but the one that blew my mind, first time I had it was Ten Fidy. It's a little can with a huge stout monster inside.

    Honorable mentions, Hop Nosh, Gubna, Hop Shock, Old Chub and Big Swell.

    Hoperation overload from Destihl is BY FAR the best IPA, double, or imperial that I have had in a can. IPA's are best suited for a can-to-mouth beer, but the cigar city/Sierra maibock collaboration was dinamite! That being said, Oskar blues doesn't make a bad beer.

    There have been a lot of great ones mentioned so far. Maybe I missed them but I'll add Two Hearted and Revolution Anti-Hero.

    Tocobaga by a pretty wide margin.

    Old Chub and ten fidy. Any other recommendations are incorrect.

    Oh, it's fantastic too, but if I was forced to choose 3, those would be it!

    The answer is Ten Fidy. It's the outlier. All of the others mentioned are IPA's or DIPA's. It's a mind blowing Imperial Stout that you just don't expect out of a can. I do love some Two Hearted out of the 16 oz can in the summer, but Ten Fidy wins this race.

    I'm thirding this...just tried it tonight for the first time and its amazing. Technically the best beer I've had in the can considering I've only had gandhi bot in growlers.

    Most definitely Fort George 3-Way IPA.

    Don't doubt me...

    I've had each and every of your canned beers. I'm being honest. Your beers are good. Just not to those levels. Obviously I've struck a chord. What I actually meant is you hype up in the release thread the whole "mad Scientists" thing, that was what I found laughable. No big deal, you just do a forum commercial way of doing things.

    A company that props themselves up in their name always makes me suspicious.
