    I'm in NYC, but I've travelled to VT, ME, and upstate NY. Lived in upstate NY for 25 years.
    My best, in order:
    ~ Dinner
    ~ Hi Res
    ~ Stone's Best By
    ~ DFH 90 Minute
    ~ Rushing Duck's War Elephant

    What are yours, and what should I seek out?

    Are you looking for suggestions country-wide or in your general vicinity?

    Did you travel to the west coast, or did you find it locally??

    If you are traveling through Madison, find the Great Dane and have their imperial ipa. Outstanding fresh out of the tap with some buffalo wings.

    Ooooh, I would LOVE to try Dinner.... I have heard awesome things about it. : > )

    Around my neck of the woods, Big Doedish from Witches Hat is PHENOMINAL, and of course Kuhnhenn Brewery DRIPA is GREAT !
    Bell's has a great IPA called Hopsolution that pops up on taps occasionally that is nice too.

    Majaraja is pretty damn tasty on tap. Green Bullet as well.

    On a side note, I would not consider Pliny the Elder a great DIPA on tap. I love it in the bottle and it has always blown me away when consumed in that form. On tap though, it has been just above average. Not sure why.

    This thread has been up an hour and no one has said Heady? I am shocked... My vote is Surly Abrasive I guess, with a little side helping of hometown bias.

    Oh right, they used to have it on-tap at the brewery, I guess I didn't realize they don't do that anymore. Well my vote for abrasive stands then!

    90 minute is the best, most consistent DIPA on tap that I have ever had access to.

    Stapleton Tap house might have some. If not, I know they were planning on having some very soon.
