    There's been a few threads before on good non-US IPAs.

    But what are the best breweries outside America who produce more than one hoppy beer?
    Or not just IPAs and DIPAs, but also hoppy ambers, saisons, etc.?

    Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergso lives in Brooklyn now and Evil Twin contracts all their beers at Westbrook in South Carolina, so I wouldn't call them "outside America".

    But yeah, Mikkeller do some hoppy farmhouse ales along with IPAs.

    Truth, but I figured since they both got started in Denmark it was kosher.

    Mikkeller makes some very good hoppy beers. However, their 1000 IBU was downright awful IMO. I guess that's why we all have opinions, because it actually has a good score on BA.

    IMO the perfect hoppy beer made by mikkeller was wheat is the new hops. just a lovely beer.

    The correct answer is Naparbier out of Spain.

    They have 5 American IPA's, two of which are DIPA's. I've had Hop Doom, which is distributed in the US by Shelton Bros, and it's one of the hoppiest beers I've ever had. Their specialty seems to be American styled brews.
