Thread: some damn good IPA's out there

Took a look at Evil Twin Molotov Cocktail - 13% Imperial IPA - and backed down.
Anyone brave enough to try it? Kind of a killer price, well, if you consider paying by total alcohol content.
Had a Stone / R&R Collaboration Coconut IPA instead. Pretty good at first. Smells great, tastes great, but after a pint it's a bit much on the coconut. You almost get the sense that you're drinking suntan oil with that coconut nose but 7.7% alcohol body. It's worth a taste for sure and actually much better balanced than I'm implying - just different, and a pretty strong smell of coconut ... could maybe use a tweak for next year though, maybe try some Nelson Sauvin or other NZ hops to tie softer elements to the coconut ..._______________________________________________

Probably mentioned already, but have been enjoying Port Brewing's Wipe Out IPA. Nice west coast-style flavor.
Great thread.

Port crushes it. The Hop 15 (15 different hops) is unreal, if anyone gets to see that guy on tap. And Mongo fresh on tap is a beauty of a beer.
Right now in my fridge I've got
Drakes Aroma Coma
High Water No Boundary
High Water Hop Logic
Triple Voodoo 8 Tentacles (Kraken)
Stone RuinTen
Pliny the Elder
Hmmm, which one should I drink next ..._______________________________________________

This years Aroma Coma is a damn fine beer - picked up a bottle last weekend.
Also finally had a bottle of Torpedo IPA that was tasty. Dunno what it was - shielded 12 pack, hadn't been beat to shit? - but it was better than the others. Not great, but drinkable.
on the SARA front - Unit 101 is a danky APA, slightly less than an IPA but still tasty.

Fuck you west-coasters. You guys are dicks.
Ok. I might be salty at not having easy access to drakes, russian river and bear republic. 1 bottle of suppy and 1 bottle of consecration left. Growler of Pliny gone. Please send hops.

Thai Me Up Brewing in Jackson, WY makes 2x4 double IPA, won gold in Denver in 2012 for best Double IPA plus many other golds at other golds for other beer festivals. It is bitter like myself & I like it, plus a crazy amount of hops as well. Something like 10%, & 99 IBUs, it is hoppiness on tap.

La Cumbre's Elevated has me more excited about a beer than I have been in a long time. For a single IPA, this one sports an incredibly juicy, citrus-forward hop flavor. It's got a nice, mellow nose, comes in a touch lighter in color than I'd have thought, and finishes with just enough malt to temper the bitter. Highly recommend it to anyone that can find it.

Where have you found it?
Also need to get to the store to see if they have the Stone Anny in yet. Anyone seen it out yet?

^^^I think Hazel's had the Gotterdammersomething or other last time I was there. Had the La Cumbre in NM. Fairly sure their distribution is nil, though I might have one kicking around the fridge if you're game for a trade.
