    I might try to get some Pocket Trick soon. I've had the same overall opinion of Forgotten Boardwalk. Haven't been there in a while. But I'm willing to give it a shot.

    And I echo some of the previous sentiments:

    Session: BOAT

    APA: Kane Hop Lab Citra

    IPA: Pollinator from Magnify Brewing

    DIPA: 07750

    TIPA: Kane Triple

    Pocket Trick is nice, but I don't think it's on the same level as other pales mentioned in this thread. It's a decent representation of Mosaic. If we're going to throw Forgotten Boardwalk in the mix we should be discussing A Limited Engagement as well. It's a nice citra pale ale. I've never had Kane Hop Lab Cita so I cannot compare the two, but maybe there's someone here who has had both.

    Let's just put it this way, if I had to choose between Head High or Hop Lab Citra... Citra wins 11 times out of 10.

    Agreed, haven't enjoyed anything from them. This was another story though, really solid stuff.

    I haven't made it out to Magnify yet but I agree with the rest of the list, except I would substitute Boat for Ripple.

    I almost forgot about this. Flounder's Azzaca IPA. Not Founder's, Flounder's.

    It is off the chain good.

    I live really close to Flounder. I've never had one of their beers, but maybe I should stop by there one day. Did you get that beer right from them or from a store/bar?

    Had it at their anniversary event at Big Head's, but when they're open they always have some great stuff.
