    Second Hop Devil.

    The maltiest ipa in my life has been Speakeasy Double Daddy. Maybe a DIPA but whatever still IPA and double the malt

    Two Brothers Hop Centric. Boozy and Malty. Pretty much at Barleywine level.

    Just had Techno IPA from Kragle. This was a malt forward ale that was quite enjoyable.

    The Kind and Marin IPA are pretty malt forward IPAs. I think most all DIPAs are too malty. I want a lopsided, hops-centric IPA or DIPA.

    and geez, no one complains that they need to be drank within 7 days to taste good! don't these breweries know that an IPA has to be brewed with all base malt and only a whirpool hop addition?

    I also liked Hoptimum as well.

    Two Hearted??? Really?? I don't get any malt from this beer at all. To me, it's comparative to Ithaca's Flower Power. You guys do not detect mostly floral, citrus forward notes from Two Hearted?

    For me the one that comes to mind is Bengali. That could just be me, but it got that awesome malt backbone that stands out to me before the hops really hit.

    7 Seas "Ballz Deep" was too malt forward for me. Might be good for some...

    I'm with you, Two Hearted is very pale.
