Kuhnhenn DRIPA
Victory Dirt Wolf
Fat Heads Head Hunter
Short's Freedom of 78'
Bell's Hopslam

Honorable mention:
Two Hearted
Jai Ali
Hopstache
Double Trouble
Sucks

 

Alchemist Heady Topper, Surly Abrasive, Lawsons Double Sunshine, 3Floyds Zombie Dust, Lagunitas Sucks, Lawsons/Otter Creek Double Dose, Victory Dirtwolf & HF Harlan

 

Stone Ruination
Unita Hop Notch
Stone RuinTen
Troeg's Perpetual
Jack's ABby Kiwi Rising - it's a lager, I know. Deal with it

 

Too tough to limit it, there are so many great brews out there. If I was pushed for 1/1A IPA, I'd say HF Susan, and Head Hunter right behind it. DIPA easily HT and Abrasive, I can't think of a 3d that would push it except HF Ephraim. I'm not sure what HF classifies Ephraim as, but at over 9% abv I'd consider it a DIPA, and it's tremendous as well, but factoring in containers and beach and pool friendly those big 16 oz cans make me smile.

 

1. Sosus
2. Heady Topper
3. Abrasive
4. Zeelander
5. Sucks (its been so long since I had one, its hard to place it)

on the DIPA front it has to be Bells hosplam and vinny's brew AKA the elder.
sadly no IPA favor and while this might make some made I think IPA. I think Dales PA. that is some hoppy for me, and I love it with Cajun and Mexican food I make....
