    My vote goes toward Mountain High IPA from Weed, CA.

    The Toffee-like nuttyness from the hempseed really rounds
    out the Westcoast hop notes, & masks the 7% ABV. It also adds an "Umami"
    element to the mouthfeel of the beer as a whole.
    Great balance & supreme drinkability.

    Anyone else?

    DUBHE black IPA from Wasatch Brewing is damn good

    you mean Dubhe by Uinta brewing? or is there really another hemp black IPA named Dubhe? I picked up a four pack of the Uinta, a little pricey, but it was pretty good and I'm not a big fan of black IPAs.

    Haha oh shit, yeah you're right, I always get these two Utah breweries mixed up.

    Dubhe is the best, and one of the better black IPAs out there.

    Dubhe is the only hemp ale I've tried thus far; it was a pretty solid brew...

    Only hemp ale I've had is Humbolt Hemp Ale. Honestly it's not that good.

    I am pretty sure I've only had Dubhe, but it was damn good.

    I've had Humboldt Brown from the tap. It was alright, but I probably won't be seeking it out again. I really wanted to like it, too.
