    It's kind of sweet for my taste. That said, I have a 64oz growler of it in the fridge I got for $8.99

    For some reason, i haven't bought any in awhile. I will fix that this week.
    It tends to sit on the shelf by me.
    If I can read the date, and it is reasonably fresh, I will buy it.

    It is by far, one of my favorite DIPA's. Solid, terrific aroma, great taste and ABV are on point. I don't know why I don't stock up on it more often. It's a great and delivery offering, that is looked over a lot. Great flavor, awesome beer and very reasonably priced.

    I bet if they charged more for it, it has the potential to be thought more highly. Who knows.

    It's a rock solid DIPA and thanks for reminding me to pick some up!

    It is hard to beat for the price. But the date thing bothers me. If I'm looking for a 22oz DIPA I would pass right by this for the Ruination or GD Hercules.

    This beer on tap is absolutely mind blowing. An incredible buy @ $4.99 although it does seem like its not always fresh.

    A big fan of Lagunitas' hop profile and this one delivers in spades. I actually think its kinda similar to Myrcenary, which is among my top 5ish commonly available DIPAs.

    Just had a 22 oz hop stoopid on draft for a five spot. Yum.

    Yeah, best bang for the buck. About $3.50/22oz here in PDX.

    Can you be more clear about this? I'm not being a smart ass, just curious what flavors you get that tell you this.

    Everybody needs to be quiet and calm down. I find this beer for around $3.50 at the convenience store down the street, and if you all ruin this for me I will be very upset. With that said, I think it's because the label is the most un-appitizing label I've ever seen in my life.

    I haven't had a bad brew from lagunitas. It's a toss up between hop stoopid and sucks, with Maximus a close third in my personal medal ceremonies for lagunitas DIPAs.

    Hop Stoopid was prolly one of the first DIPAs I drank - it will always be one of my favorites. You just can't beat it in bang for the buck. I've still got six bombers in the fridge from a case I got a couple weeks ago. Gotta savor them!

    Can never read the date, so I always pass on it. I did enjoy it the few times I had it.
