    I love IPAs so much its hard to pin it down to one, mostly because I'm continually finding a new favorite. I buy a lot of Little Sumpin', Two Hearted, Big Eye IPA, Modus Hoperandi and Centennial IPA, but my favorite right now is Ethos by Tallgrass. I keep waiting to have a shift to where some new IPA comes along and unseats it, but its been a few months now and it is always in my fridge, its great!

    Don't know if they've been mentioned but Sierra Northern Hemisphere Harvest and Goodlife Descender are both top notch. Lawson's Triple Play too.

    Definitely dying to try Julius though!

    Could there be any thread more vague? Opinions are not objective.

    Easy to see the IPA market is saturated. It's about as fine tuned of a style as there is, something for almost every one . . . drink what you like and who the hell cares what others are drinking.
