    What about some examples of some IPAs with "pine" flavors?

    I get tea with that too, but mostly because it reminds me of the Stone Japanese Green Tea IPA.

    GF Palate Wrecker, GF IIPA, GF WCIPA, Stone IPA, Stone Ruination IPA, Two Hearted, Lagunitas IPA, Pliny, Hop Stoopid, Torpedo, Founders Centennial, Racer 5, Big Eye...

    Most of the older IPAs are very pine forward. The juicy IPAs are sort of a new thing.

    I get it big time in Two Hearted but not as much in Centennial. Honestly been too long since I've had a Racer 5 to remember.

    The first single hop that I went apeshit for. I think it was a Mikkeller single hop line but ya, "Simcoe" just floored me.



    I'm waiting for the trademark battle on this one as we have Citra Ass Down (EXCELLENT beverage I might add at a damn reasonable price!) offered in my area by Extra Billy's Brewery and Restaurant. While I haven't had Against the Grain's version, I still refuse to give them my business due to that stupid Brown Note label.

    I live here in Louisville, and they're nothing to write home about. I've had a couple good ones from them but I much prefer Country Boy in Lexington.

    I like what Toppling Goliath does with their single hop beers. Low malt profile so you can taste what the different hops do to them.

    Golden Nugget - Nugget Hops
    Pseudo Sue - Citra Hops
    Zeelander - Nelson Sauvin Hops
