My new favorite. I like this better than DFH 120 min. If you like a hoppy IPA-this will blow your mind.

I'm gonna have to look into this shit.

Life begins at 65......IBU's that is.


Victory Hop Devil is great, Three Floyds Alpha King is another, Diamond Knot IPA is also delish. I have a recipe for a great IPA that uses brown sugar to crank up the alcohol content. It also uses 3 different types of hops during the brewing process and then a 4th for dry hopping.

IPA's have never really called to me, but you guys are making them sound good.
Perhaps I'll be going back to Spec's sooner than I thought.

IPA's are definitively an acquired taste. Good ones can be fantastic, but bad ones taste like hay with goat piss on it.

Meh, I'll still give them a look. There are so many of them to choose from.
And I don't mind bitter, provided the beer is supposed to be bitter.

I picked up a six of their Torpedo Extra IPA.
Wow... bitter... but the flavors are pretty impressive.
The bitter doesn't really kick in until the aftertaste, but the initial flavor is bright and citrusy, like grapefruit rind.

Sounds good, I'll have to look for it. SNAPLE(Sierra Nevada Pale Ale) is one of my favorites.

They had a couple of the Dogfish IPA's... I forget which ones.. 60 and 120 or 90 and 120?

Are those any good?

*eta it was 60 and 90... don't think we get the 120 around here

I've had the 60 but not the 90 or 120. I've seen the 90, but the 120 is seldom carried in the stores here. The 60 is real good, so I'm guessing the 90 would be the same but with a little more hops and a little more alcohol.
