    Although you would need to go to Bourbonnais to get it, I recommend Brickstone APA. I think it matches your description pretty well. Other then the Chicago part.

    Used to carry the name, but now it's known as Hop Centric. Juicy, hoppy deliciousness.

    I would consider basically all of Rev brewing ipas as juicy.

    Haha so now that we have named most midwest IPA's, let's actually figure out which ones fit OP's bill.

    My new favorite is Fantasy Factory brewed by Karben4 in Madison. Citra to the max.

    You know how I can tell none of you have tried Bodhi? Because it wasn't mentioned once.

    Columbus Brewing Company's Bodhi DIPA is seriously one of the most RIDICULOUSLY good DIPA's I've ever had, up with HT for the top of my DIPA list.


    EDIT: Sarcasm, btw. And on another note, Knee Deep Simtra. It's available here in Ohio. Seriously, I couldn't stop smelling it. One of the biggest tropical aromas I've ever encountered.

    I got a bomber of it sitting in my fridge, but haven't tried it yet. I did try Centennial Ninja this week......FANTASTIC. I also love the Marilime Law Ninja....kinda wacky, but real good.
