Some IPAs you should definitely check out:

Lagunitas IPA
Stone IPA
Bell's Two Hearted IPA
Avery IPA

 

I Schlafly Hefeweizen

 

Not a huge fan of IPA, however there is a microbrew company in Lake Placid (Adk brewing company I believe) that makes an execellent Hef

 

i agree with dogfish
I'm a fan of 60 and 90 min IPA but by far i love the 120 min
it's definitely one thing i miss from the east coast..I haven't been able to find any here in socal

 

Erdinger is good, my fave is Franziskaner for Hefe.

Dogfish Head 60 min is a great IPA, the 90 and 120 min are just a little over the top for me.

 

Dog Fish

90 minute is a good beer to have every once in a while....

 

Not a fan of IPA at all so I cannot comment.

As for Hef, American hef and German hef are VERY different. For American hef, my fav is:





Uintah Golden Spike Hefeweizen, which is based out of Salt Lake City, UT.


As for German hefs, my fav is probably Franziskaner hefe weissbier dunkel .

 

i have a bottle of avery IPA that a co-worker gave me last week actually. going to try it out tonight

 

I *love* IPAs. Massive bitter hops = me happy. I actually don't like dogfish head IPAs as much because they're too malty but to each his own.

My favorite two beers ever: Stone Ruination, Bell's Hopslam

 

tuna, you have to have a Randall-ized beer then. Ridiculous hop taste, like you're eating them, except you're drinking them.

Triumph's Hopdevil is a great Imperial IPA if you've never had it.
