    Has anyone tried it? I don't' see any reviews for it, and the description on the brewhouse website sounds great. I'll be in the area soon and was curious if it's worth seeking out. Of course almost everything there is worth trying!

    Not yet. I got sucked in by BBA Edmund Fitzgerald and it never let me go to anything else...

    I have had it. I think it went on tap this last weekend as I saw on their Facebook page. It is absolutely sublime! I seriously put it up there with Abrasive and Pliney. It is that good.

    Is it an IPA or DIPA?

    When people misspell Pliny, somewhere in the west coast, a puppy dies.

    When I care about misspelling a word, unicorns will get wings.

    $23.18 with growler deposit. It's delicious. Fitger's IPAs have been getting better and better over the years. This is the best one I've ever had from them.

    This is back on tap for what I understand to be the last time this year. Fantastic DIPA. Get it while you can.

    for me it tasted like a more dry hopped version of their El Nino that my buddy was drinking at the same time

    I thought it was very good, but not worth the price they were asking for a growler.

    With that said, Fitgers is amazing. And Mayor Ness is worth the tribute, a real visionary.
