    This thing right here is easily my number one. I put it over Stone Go To, All Day, Pop Up Session, and probably any other

    I haven't had very good luck with session IPAs. They're almost an oxymoron.

    But, I keep trying them, hoping to find one I can drink five or six (or ten) of and actually enjoy it. As such, I have an Oskar Blues Pinner chilling right now. < fingers crossed >

    i think Moon Man is more of a pale ale but that is probably my favorite session hoppy beer.

    It's solid, I would put Go-To in the same tier, but both are a few of the offerings that truly do the session IPA style justice IMHO. Need to try Pinner...YMMV

    Never had Sunshine, but Go To is the very best session IPA I've ever had. I am not even a fan of the "session IPA" style and I still love Go To like few other beers.

    Though all praise and worship be due to those Olympians who brew their fine nectar at Oscar Blues, Stone Go To outclasses Pinner in every way, shape, and form.

    I tried all day and a few others then stopped. They all tasted like stagnant bong water to me. Maybe I'll try pinner.

    Yep. Sessions are not my favorite by any means. Go-To was underwhelming, All Day is solid, and the rest did not impress. They seem to just die off on the way down. Nice hop burst up front and then they die. Thats why I enjoy Sunshine Daydream. It holds flavor all the way down. Wish Fathead distributed more of their stuff here than they do.
