Sierra Nevada 4-Way IPA Pack

Guys, if you have been wondering whether to get this or not. You should. Its a great high quality pack that surprised me. Every beer was good, even the Tropical Torpedo was great being born on 12/19

 

It certainly worth what you are paying for.

 

Agreed. Sipping the No Middle Ground now and loving it...also glad SNPA was left out of this one, been needing to revisit tropical torpedo

 

I've not seen that one in town.

 

I never let a SN sample pack slip by without grabbing one.

 

Picked this up in Raleigh, NC this weekend. Really enjoyed the "Know Good IPA". As it's described on the bottle its just such a clean, solid Straightforward American IPA.

 

As an older craft beer fan, the Know Good is hitting all the right notes for me. Clean, balanced yet Hop-forward & very drinkable. If 2006 me I discovered this beer, I’d never drink anything else. As for now, I think it’s just a great drinking IPA you don’t need to think about or fuss too much.

Enjoying Flipside more now than it first came out. With present consumer changes & tastes towards fruit juice, it really stands out as an old school malty/hoppy beer.

 

I picked this up as I soon as I saw it. I did not enjoy the IPA with coffee but all the others are solid Sierra Nevada offerings.

 

I’m not a big fan of the coffee IPA style, but seemed pretty inoffensive to me. Many seem to enjoy this version though.

I’ll definitely buy another pack. I don’t mind that the Tropical or even Torpedo is included in them, they are good beers I wouldn’t buy on their own normally & gives me an excuse to re-visit them.

In a future IPA mixer I’d love to see them do the Anniversary IPA - made 2007-2009 & one of my favorite all time SN beers.

I know it doesn’t match the name but I find a fantastic dank nite in Tropical Torpedo every time I have it. Love that beer and the pack as a whole is the best mic pack SN has done in a while.

 

Never really had a coffee IPA so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I thought that No Middle Ground was excellent. It has more of a blonde roast coffee flavor to it to me which I think works well when meshed with an IPA. I would buy a sixer of it if given the chance. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try if you're on the fence.

 

I enjoyed it. I have had a few coffee IPAs in the past, some have had overwhelming coffee others not noticeable. This seemed to have a very nice balance. I really enjoyed the aroma, it was strong on the coffee but also had fruity hops coming through too

 

Never saw the fresh hop and dont expect to see this although there is a shit ton of hop bullet and that hazy whatever around.

 

I saw these at Sam's this morning.

Note that the coffee IPA was switched out for Torpedo. I would have much rather bought this version, as I was not a fan of the coffee IPA. Less than $25 a case also. I wonder if it's a strategy to play a little safe. I noticed the Sam Adams mix packs at Sam's don't include the same beers as the 12 packs sold elsewhere.

 

interesting. Different name too (4-way vs 4 days).

 

I'd drop Tropical Torpedo too.
