    I was wondering if there is a list of all IPAs and DIPAs that are 100 percent galaxy hops?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yeah, I did that, but the list returned is only a small subset. For example a beer like Lamplighter's Major Tom or Trillium's Permutation Series Number 32 are not going to appear.

    But thanks for the suggestion.

    Perhaps we'll just have to make the list here?

    NEBCO Galaxy Pale Ale (amazing)

    Quest for the Galaxy by O'Fallon is another St. Louis, MO one.

    This is going to be nearly impossible to compile. The information is just not readily available, and not all breweries publicize their hop bills anyway, not to mention availability in your area. This is a tall order.

    Such a list is probably not possible for the reasons @THANATOPSIS mentioned. Best you could probably hope for is a crowd-sourced list that would be incomplete and not totally accurate – including beers where Galaxy is the star but in which other varieties may be used. Just one example off the top of my head...Revolution Galaxy Hero. It's implied, but there's no way to be certain if it's single-hopped with Galaxy.

    Probably will have to do a beer search on untappd or something

    I figured it would be a tall order. Thanks for the responses...

    everybody seems super down on the question but I would say that galaxy sauce from fieldwork is one.

    Add Hill Farmstead Galaxy Pale and Double Galaxy DIPA to the list. Top o’ the Galaxy mountain for me.

    Fieldwork (Northern California) Galaxy Juice (IPA) and Galaxy Sauce (DIPA). Their Galaxy Sauce is the boss.

    Was Anchorage Brewing’s GalaxyWhite IPA a 100% Galaxy Beer? That beer was so good and it validated (to me) the homebrewing I was doing at the time, which was focused on the part of the Venn Diagram where Saison, IPA, and farmhouse/brett pale ales came together...I was mostly using citra, mosaic and centennial at the time so it was an eye-opener.

    I believe Galaxy High has some Topaz in it...

    Other Half Space Diamonds, Space Daydream, and Space dream are ones you're bound to see somewhat frequently. Less frequent is their Galaxy IPA.

    While not 100% galaxy, Tree House Green is very galaxy forward, as is Congress Street by Trillium.
