    Hoptimum, Maharaja, Pliny, Myrcenary in no particular order. I've honestly never had Heady.

    My DIPA of choice would be Surly Abrasive, but I do not see that very often in Sioux Falls, SD.

    I am lucky enough to have Odell Myrcenary available on tap or bottle. Great beer.

    How someone*, having had Abrasive, would forget it... to me is more mind boggling than how amazing Abrasive actually is (yes...I've had Heady & Pliny - no contest, IMO)

    *It was just a momentary lapse (in this case 28 minutes)

    I think 'best' means one?

    Kern Citra was my favorite, a revelation.
