    Haven't had the real Zombie Dust yet. I know someone will point out that ZD is a highly hopped APA, but I sure don't detect a difference between my homebrew and a well made IPA. Luv me some Citra hops.

    As far as single IPAs go, I'd say Jai Alai is probably my favorite normal everyday IPA. Double, I would have to say Heady or fresh RuinTen.

    It's between Head Hunter and Two Hearted. Probably a slight edge to Head Hunter.

    Fantastic. Maybe I should jump onto every thread about some beer style I don't care for and make it known that I don't care for it...over and over again... :rolling_eyes:

    Thats weird, about the first one the second one is an obvious thing, mine has been dropped about 3 feet ( my daughter knocked it onto the carpet), has been slammed down extremely hard (I tend to be rough on drinking apparatuses while watching the Cowboys.... can you blame me?) and has generaly been treated with no care in the world and it has no damage to show. I would have call DFH customer support about your first glass breaking, they have been helpful to me in the past. Now like I said, the second one was kinda a duh thing...

    It depends on the day! Some days I like a sweeter more citrus flavor, some days I want more piney flavor. Some days I would like a smooth, mellow flavor; while other days I want something that will punch me in the face, call me names, and feed on my tears.
