IPA's I've never tried

Had 3 on there, but even those were hard to get,

 

This article is a list of IPAs that the author considers to be not very bitter.

 

Brew some clones

 

let down meaning 3 floyds...epiphany was great

 

For Congress Street, sure. I haven't had the others. From word of mouth on Epiphany and the Tired Hands stuff, it likely fits in this category of "not very bitter". I can think of several others I'd put in the category, and at present, they constitute my list of go-to IPAs, even if they aren't easy to get.

I don't see it as positive or negative, just different. I had CC Jai Alai on my cruise last week, very nice, balanced, more bitter than Congress or Treehouse stuff, but not very bitter compared to most IPAs. I bought some Terrapin Hopsecutioner to bring on board and could barely drink it. Super bitter. Yet my sister loves the stuff.

 

Yeah I've become addicted (not literally) to the tropical, hazy IPA's out here. But I still love a good bitter bomb.

 

The whole "bitterness" reference is a little confusing. I thought this article was listing the most bitter ipas. I think this is pretty much another one of those standout ipa lists.

 

Wow, I see it now in the text portion of the article, but that's a questionable choice of the word 'transcend' in the headline for the story.

 

It's even closer than that. They are basically neighboring storage units that share a tiny parking lot. Good call on the Swish. I was lucky enough back in November to hit BB for Swish, The Substance, and reciprocal on my first day of vacation in Maine. Double lucky to hit the Epiphany release the day after. All named brews were awesome!

 

Congress Street, Epiphany, Blind Pig, Permanent Funeral...check, in that order. Congress St has limited non-brewery release, Ephiphany is brewery only. Just not a fan of Tired Hands

 

Only one i Havent had is Permanent Funeral. I love EPIPHANY!! I cam across that brewery by accident sending a friend to fill a growler for me in Portland. Came back with a growler and i never heard of them, they were open for a week at that point.

 

I've had Blind pig, and I'm gonna to be getting the FFF one in a trade soon. Haven't seen the others.

 

Treehouse
Trillium
Grimm

 

I've had
Epiphany
BLIND Pig
Alien Church
Permanent Funeral

Epiphany is terrible. No one should look for it. If you have any send it to me for disposal.

 

Trillium's Congress Street
Grimm's Tesseract
Other Half's All Green Everything/Mosaic
Lawson's Sip of Sunshine
Alchemist's Focal Banger
Toppling Goliath's Pseudosue
3 Floyd's Zombie Dust

I could go on. :X I've been to Treehouse once and still have a laundry list of stuff to try. Maybe once my knee heals up (if it does) and I get a decent weekend, I'll head out east some more.

 

You could just as well add any of the world class brews fro Alpine, Alesmith, or Lagunitas and you would be just as correct. I'm happy with my shelf IPAs, more for the rest of y'all.

 

Had a few of those. Had epiphany recently and loved it.

 

Had Kernel and Blind Pig. If they had Melvin IPA, that would be on the list.

 

If you want a bad ass bitter hop bomb get some Lagunitas Waldo. I'm drinking one right now.
