    My vote is Julius > Green > Alter Ego. I'd also rank Citra > Galaxy > Mosaic.

    Green was fantastic...really really fantastic. But I can't get over the juicy freshness of Julius. I like all those hops pretty equally well when used correctly. I've had plenty of overpowering mosaic and biting citra. TH does it right on all of these.

    I feel spoiled that I've had a chance to try most of Tree House's IPAs. For me, Green > Haze > Julius > Alter Ego.
    I need to get out there more so I can share the canned goodness with more of you.

    An attempt to explain in a slightly less confusing way (this is me we're talking about, so wish me luck):

    @andreizm won a secret LIF of mine shortly before targets went out for the round; he was responsible for my 20,000th Like. I got clearance from @devilfluff to combine shipping once I luckily got @andreizm as my target. The LIF is two of the three quart containers, and the two unwrapped bottles.

    I figured Thanksgiving Day might be a great day to open 3 quart containers, if friends/family are into hoppy beers, so I offered the option to switch Days 1 and 2. If not, dealer's choice which quart is "Day 1" and which are free to open anytime.

    IP > Haze > Green > AE > Julius

    So I just looked over that list for like 2 minutes and I can't get over how absurd it is that Julius is #5 on my list. #NewEnglandIPAPropblems

    Since I was responsible for the final trip of the SixterCAN box, I will be starting up a new traveling box "soon". This probably includes announcement sometime early/mid December, with sign ups running through the end of the month. Details of traveling box TBA, but anyone who hasn't been exposed to the best NE hops is gonna want to get in on this one.
