    Another vote for Indeed Daytripper. It's just so tasty.

    Two that I like are Saint Peter Pale Ale from Great Waters, and Angry Planet from Flat Earth.

    I met Clark at the TG party at Dexter's... during our conversation, he used the words "Minnesota", "January", and "2014" in the same sentence... :slight_smile:

    I like the session IPA moniker over just pale ale. Gives the consumer a clear idea of what they are buying. Relatively low abv and lots of hops. Some pale ales just aren't that hoppy, while others could rightly be called IPA. Sure it's something of a marketing ploy, but aren't all beer styles in a sense marketing ploys as we?

    Thanks for posting this. I had been avoiding this as I had heard mixed things on the brewery beers but I bought a 4 pack based on this and it is quality stuff
