Best IPA/DIPA by State

Lumberyard is good too.

 

NC
DIPA Wicked Weed Freak of Nature
IPA NODA Hop Drop and Roll by a nose over Foothills Jade

 

Yeah- I knew they were canning it, but thought it was only available in a few counties close to the brewery. I also don't know if it sells out right away or not. But, what the hell, let the OP worry about that stuff

 

In a recent trade, I got a very nice New Hampshire DIPA from @mklisz. From the Barrel Lily is the name. It had one of the best aromas I've ever put my nose to. This was 10 minutes after sharing cans of Focal Banger which has a spectacular nose as well. We all felt Lily smelled better but didn't quite have the flavor of Focal. Definitely worth checking out FYI.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
My thoughts EXACTLY.
Jade on tap is just tough to beat--that nose is getting shorter.

 

IL: Revolution Anti-Hero & Pipeworks Ninja Vs. Unicorn

 

minnesota: surly abrasive and furious, in close second if not a tied is indeed: let it ride ipa.
wisconsin: scream iipa, nuff said on that.
iowa: king sue for iipa and too many good ipa's and pale ales to just single down to one.

 

Permanent Funeral is not readily available...It's all about Zombie Dust and Dreadnaught,with honorable mention to 18th Street's Sinister

 

FL best IPA is my avatar white oak aged jai alai

 

PA: Dirt Wolf
VA: Stone IPA

 

I'd almost have to look at the NM IPA Challenge results year after year. A unique event that pits anywhere from 10 to 16 breweries IPAs against each other for the common fan to taste and vote on. It's usually done in 3-4 different venues on different dates. The common fans vote.. This year Bosque Brewings Scale Tipper won. That's some great stuff. Definitely competes with Elevated.. For years it was Il Vicino's Exodus IPA, which has less than a dozen votes on BA.. As a state, I feel we are highly underrepresented as having world class IPAs... La Cumbre brought us attention. I hope other breweries start canning or bottling some of their great works of art.

NM: Consistently and a front runner for me would be La Cumbre Elevated Ipa

 

By a mile.

 

NE doesn't have an awful lot of them, but easily the best one I've had is Imperial Mango IPA

 

You should check one of the other 1000000 threads that cover this exact topic.

 

TX: lone pint's Yellow Rose. (They just started bottling I heard, so this counts.)

Home state of TN: Squirrel King or Try from wiseacre (both DIPA)
Yazoo Hop Project or wiseacre ananda for IPA

 

Everyones entitled to their opinion, but if you think harpoon is the best IPA in massachusetts, your living under a rock lol.
