Summit or Citra? The Citra one from last month is the best since the blend for VIII, which was hands down my favorite so far.

VIII - Summit,Columbus, and Citra. Really nice. It's a shame I only grabbed 2 4 packs.

Fresh release of Cloud drop.
this didn't sound that appealing "hoppy lager?" but it was unreal; Like a more drinkable, crushable HF Edward.

Farnham has a new brewmaster and they're killing it. Has a nice balance profile with just the right amount of mosaic and galaxy. Got better and better as it breathed

Very Good, a little thin and straw-ish as can be common with single hops.

My milkshake brings the boys to the yard! This one was different. Very low carbonation and a Milky smooth mouthfeel. Finished with a nice hoppiness. Couldn't really taste the vanilla. It May have been my taste buds that eve, but didn't have a great finish after it had warmed some

Nice Simcoe single hop. Simcoe isn't my favorite as I like juice bombs, but still a great addition to BBC single hop series.

Gotta put a plug in for River Roost. Mass Verde blew me away.

Love the black back! I often go there to avoid the tourist at pro pig.

That mas Verde is like cheating. Do they inject juice extract straight into the beer? (im joking)

Got a growler of their Martian moon house dipa yesterday. It's a favorite of mine, It's like the love child of Mas Verde and glimpse.

Their feet first:Vic secret was good.

Today they posted that they tapped Strong suit dipa. Never had it, but it gets rave reviews. I might have to swing by the brewery for the second time in two days. Lol

Does a homebrewed IPA count?

[Peruvian]

Yeah but you liked the 20th anni rock art, and I hated it.
Different tastes, mine obviously, are better than yours!

I hope you are right. I passed by the rock art 20th today. Of course I picked up some Lush instead.

You drank all of those in one sitting! This review is null and void

I don't have a picture or anything, but I ended up at a tap takeover for Stockholm Brewing Company (as in, from Sweden), and one of the session IPAs (there were two) may have been the best session I've ever had.Suderman I think. 4%, Simcoe and Chinook and brought out the best of both of those hops (none of the cat piss). The IPAs were OK, but that session was incredible.

snailbones is pretty good. i don’t think quality has dropped at all, though most of what i drink from them is fresh at the local locations.

'Destroyed by hippie power' IPA brewed with lemongrass is outstanding. You never know how BBC'S experimental brews (hippie & I see the vision) are going to come out, but this is good, the lemongrass isn't over-powering or intrusive at all.

pretty delicious for Connecticut ;-)

The name alone rules!
Destroyed by Hippie Powers
Car Seat Headrest are wicked good

Taking a break from the usual VT brews lately.

DIPA from Mass., 10% ABV and very drinkable. I don’t know how this doesn’t tastes all boozy.



My buddy got this for me in Chicago, not quite an IPA but a juicy pale ale that’s only 5ish% ABV.




Another midwest brew. DIPA, very tasty but lacks the dankness of New England IPAs

A few recent cans in my fridge:


But I Digress, from Springdale, a Jack's Abby spin-off. Very good, very juicy.
Second Fiddle, usually outstanding, but this last batch was unimpressive.
Trillium's Stilling St, World class. But seriously, $20 a 4 pack?
Beekeeper, BBC. Standard BBC experimentative and good IPA varietal. They are really moving in the right direction now compared to what I saw 18 months ago.
Prospect, Foley Bros. The most under rated brewery in VT, and they have several that are 11's, including this one. Pieces of 8, Citrennial, Skeleton Crew, to name a few. Just get them fresh, they don't date bottles/cans and the taste falls off faster than any other beer I know. Less than one week old and you are in beer heaven. After a week you are merely ecstatic. After a month you'll wonder what the excitement is about.

I see a lot of Frost in this thread. I tried 2 and didn't get the excitement. At all. I'll have to try the Lush next time I see it.
Hop'n Moose in Rutland (no relation) has put out some decent but not great renditions; Head Doctor, Better Dayz, Kettle on a Stump

Recent disappointments:
Long Trail Over the Handlebars. Big hype, old style clarified IPA with almost no nose and a hint of lupulin powder.
14th Star B72. Someone turned the volume down. No faults, but nothing special either. I like the Tribute better.

CT sleeper to watch for if they ever start canning it: Kent Falls. The Treehouse of Connecticut. Their non brett IPAs are magical, such as Sweat Pants.
Killington has a new brewer right on the Access Road, hasn't opened yet.

jack's left us some suds. 8.5 abv

Kent Falls makes some really good beers, and are super nice guys! Used to live 5 mins from them, now live 20 mins away. They make a ton of farmhouse/Belgian style stuff that I can't get down with, but their "regular" style IPAs and Pales (which they do can) are delicious.

ETA: These are both delicious. Maybe Both Pale Lager and False Imperative Noble Hop Pale Ale.
