    Used to get $11 12ers in nh 1-2 weeks after bottling all the time. Pretty much the only thing I enjoyed about living in nh.

    finest kind and ipswich IPA are probably the IPA's (along with sierra's IPA's) that i have had most over my career. thousands of each one. . .

    Yeah, I think you're right. The Goose Island IPA 16oz was $10.50, I think. Could have misremembered the 12oz can price, though.

    Haven't had it years, didn't know it was available in cans. Will have to look for it.

    Was having a good run there on < 1 mo old smutty fk ipa since the new brewery came online, but ended two weeks ago with a 12 pack of mediocre cans dated 4/03. Got no time or patience for mediocrity these days, they'll end up getting thrown out. And 6 month best by dates on an ipa is a joke, even with state of the art canning/bottling lines.

    Ipswich 101 has been rockin it though.

    After loving Finest Kind for many years, I had it on draft at Highland Kitchen last weekend. Best it ever tasted. Super fresh tasting. Ale so fresh you wanna slap it!

    I'm pretty much your brutha from anutha mutha. Sierra & Ipswich especially, but Smutty has been the finest kind forever. Visiting their new brewpub/restaurant this weekend. (As well as Tod Mott's Tributary in Kittery Maine.)

    Still killing it! Bought a 12 pack 12.99! Canned first week of May. Best NE IPA by far for price, availability, and quality. No need to wait in line in the woods and pay $13 plus for a four pack. FK is it!
