    Almost any IPA from Woods Boss in Denver. They have the best selection of IPA's I've ever had, and I have never really been disappointed even with their seasonal or limited edition pints.

    I don't exactly have a go-to, but the best bang-for-the-buck while being relatively affordable is probably Gymday Shorts by Platform Brewing. Really enjoyed it, but after moving from Ohio, I doubt I'll see it again...

    Right now I'm stuck on the Freemont Lush IPA. Swami's is terrific and good value as well though.

    Pretty much anything from Adroit Theory. Their DIPAs are to die for.

    My “Go To” is Sweetwater IPA, but I generally go for every new IPA I see and will settle one one for a month and then go back to Sweetwater IPA (it’s a good beer)

    Mountain Standard from Odell has been my go-to for the last few years.

    Have you tried Counterweight Crucial Mass? Really solid double.

    Locally (NH), Kelsen Battle Axe or even better, and more rare, Double Battle Axe or semi-local Lawson's Sip of Sunshine. Nationally, Dogfish 60 or 90 minute.

    "Go to" is tough because of access and availability. There so many great choices, but getting the beers consistently is not always possible. I like Treehouse Double IPAs - Haze and Julius. Two Juicy from Two Roads, Dogfish Head's 90 min IPA. Kane's Head High. A new fave is Frost Beer Works' Lush Double IPA... but I can't get it regularly.

    Lawson's sip of sunshine, I guess, would be it for me. I'm not much of a beer drinker these days, but when I partake, it's IPA or IIPA, and either Second Fiddle or Lawson's sip of sunshine.

    If it is not a SN seasonal IPA it is Lagunitas IPA.

    "Go to?" Alpha King without a doubt. If it's not available, it has to be Two-Hearted.

    Mine would be Sweetwater IPA. It doesn’t get as much love as others but I just keep buying it.

    I have a trifecta, SN Torpedo, Stone IPA and Swami's depending on mood and freshness. Swami's is simply amazing. Pizza Port will be my first spot in any future SD visit.
