    head over to jersey and get kane overhead or kane head high. I recently followed an overhead with mosaic hops with an enjoy by and, while I love enjoy by, it was no contest. the mosaic overhead was phenomenal.

    As a fan of Enjoy by IPA....

    I didn't enjoy the 10.25.2013 batch very much.

    it may not be the easiest answer, but start homebrewing. I didnt even bother picking up the last batch of stone enjoy by because my enjoy by clone was so freaking good, maybe better! it had its flaws but damn it was good, and I had a case of it for the price of a few bottles :slight_smile:

    I might have to agree. I was in Tampa last month and tried Jai alai for the first time. I had a few cans that were 8 days old, and also on tap at the Hard Rock Casino. While a very good IPA, I think I was expecting a little more. While it has nice citrus flavors up front I thought it finished a little harsh. It was also my first time trying Two Hearted, and that was definitely love at first sip. So smooth, flavorful, and balanced. Great Beer!

    These are the two best answers.

    Citrusy but dirty and dank. Slighty thicker mouthfeel and just enough bitterness.

    I think you would like hop stoopid.

    I need to disagree. Just had both. Dirtwolf has a very similar aroma but is more bitter than Enjoy By.

    Depends on the Enjoy By (insert date) you're talking about.

    So does Stone actually change the recipe from month to month or are our palates sometimes playing tricks on us?

    But I have not noticed a great variance in Enjoy By

    Merely suggesting based on Maine Beer Co.'s adament support of drinking it as fresh as possible. Which, like a lot of IPAs is the case, but I do think there is more emphasis on Lunch in that regard than say a Jai Alai.

    In my opinion Dirtwolf is leaps and bounds better than enjoy by

    Update: Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

    My haul today: Sixpoint Autumnation, Victory Dirtwolf, Founders Harvest. And to round out the 6er, 2 Narwhals and a Ten FIDY.

    I'm not much of an IPA fan, but I love the hell out of imperial stouts.

    3 Floyds Arctic Panzer Wolf.... It's a DIPA but it is really good. Enjoy By and APW are my current favorites.
