Angry Orchard kicks woodchuck's ass, and im glad its kinda replacing them at a lot of places.

original sin is still my tops cider-commonly-found-on-tap.

then Ace. but only for their Joker. i haven't had their other ciders yet

I'll say it: This beer is TOO MUCH.

I like my hoppy beers, in fact they are my favourite, but this, well, while the hop bitterness is tolerable, the sweetness is not. It's REALLY sweet. It took me an hour and a half casual sipping (whilst reading; a beer and a book I do every night) to finish one bottle.

Hopslam is the quintessential Double IPA... this one is just overkill.

I've actually been trying pale ales lately. I had New Glarus' Moon Man the other night and really enjoyed it. Had a Sierra Nevada (regular kind) just now and thought it was just ok, not amazing. Anybody have any recommendations for good hoppy beers?

its really just the same recommendations i've noticed.

everything else is :"it's ok"

It's one of those beers that you like when you first try it but get sick of it.

I loved it at first, but it became syrupy sweet after a while.

Pound for pound the best IPA on the planet:


Bell's Two Hearted


You might be able to get some in WI.

Guh I can't wait to get off work and have a beer. Had a Blue Moon for the first time in a while on Wednesday, man I love Blue Moon

seconding twohearted as the best IPA overall.

why?
-easy to find
-good price/alcohol ratio
-doesn't really taste bad or change taste too much
-not too hoppy for casual drinking
-its Bells. they dont make bad beer

Straight-up on all accounts!

The other day I was telling a friend of mine about Red Racer and how the lcbo rarely carries it. Went there yesterday and to my surprise it was in stock! Currently enjoying their ipa.

Had so many of these last night

During my trip to San Francisco over the weekend I discovered Anchor Steam, and I really enjoyed it. I've got a six pack chilling in the fridge right now, soon I'll find out if I like it as much when it's not from an open bar at a wedding.

Until then I'm drinking some Inversion IPA, not bad but a little overly hoppy for my liking.

gots me some Rogue Morimoto Soba Ale. gonna see how that goes.

i have a Griffin Ciderworks new Lolo Romy cider chilling in the fridge and im savin that for screenprinting night later this week. its a 12% cider with mango, so i expect it to be enjoyable

My new fave: seven brides porter (silverton, or)
