    Tried my first 2XIPA yesterday and I have to say it was awesome. I'm going out now to get some more. My only complaint is that I now have to re-arrange my beer fridge to accommodate it.

    Was just seeing how many other fans were out there. I bought this at Total Wine and is the only place near me that I've seen it. I'm going to talk to the manager there today to see how regular it is. I hope she tells me that it stays in stock, because I'm planning on making it regular poor.

    Any other 2XIPA lovers out there and or anyone familiar with Southern Tier?

    If it's fresh it's a solid 6 pack at a reasonable price.

    Yep, it's pretty darn good. It's easily my favorite of theirs.

    I like it a lot, but I've noticed a big difference between the bottles and the on-tap stuff. I'll drink it either way, but the on-tap stuff seems significantly better to me. Often, if I'm going to buy Southern Tier in bottles, I'll just get the regular IPA, as I think it ends up with a nicer hop flavor, less bitterness and it's cheaper.

    Their regular IPA is better to me.

    It's a great double IPA at an excellent price.

    I get a ton of Peach taste in it for some reason and I dig that.

    Saw this in their Superpack. Probably going to pick it up at some point.

    Really good stuff, one of my favorites for the price point. It is not quite as in your face as some DIPA's but is a really really good beer IMO. I've enjoyed everything I've had from Southern Tier, and their regular IPA is worth seeking out as well. I recently purchased their 12-pack "pack of pales," for $13.99 which is an awesome value.

    While you are there, check and see if they have any Southern Tier Live. If they do, pick up a six pack. It is another great beer from them.

    One of my favorites. Iniquity and the Un-Earthly are also fantastic Southern Tier brews.

    (almost forgot Pumking)

    It's good. Very good at its price point but certainly not one of my favorites. There are much better DIPAs for a couple bucks more readily available to me in Maryland.

    I absolutely love Southern Teir. The 2XIPA is great. It may not be the best DIPA out the there, but i like it. Live is my favorite APA.
