    Do you have Left Hand out there? If so see if you can get 400 Pound Monkey



    Otherwise I say New Belgium Titan.



    Or maybe Three Floyds - whatever they have in the IPA department right now. Just because you can get it and I can't.

    so.. chicagoland.

    Spiteful Bitter Biker DIPA?
    any of the Atlas offerings. Look like mostly American IPA or APA's.
    Half Acre looks pretty happy. In fact, I'd look there first.

    If you can't get there:

    Tried a 21st Amendment Back in Black last night. Black IPA. I was pretty happy.
    Lagunitas Sucks?
    DFH Burton Baton?
    60/90/120 minute IPA?
    Hopslam if you can find it?
    Lagunitas Maximus?

    Hopslam for sure. Bell's is awesome. Anything from Stone, the Arrogant *kitten* is sublime. If you are into hopbombs then definitely go for Hopsecutioner or Ruination.

    also, I'm not sure if you can get it or not, but I was super-stupid-impressed with Elysian's Ruin or The Immortal. Two FINE brews that I want to find again soon.

    I don't know if you get Odell out there, but if so, look for their Myrcenary double IPA. Tasty.

    I've had Hopslam, and I thought it was just OK. Arrogant *kitten* is pretty excellent. I've heard of that Ruination and have wanted to try it. I'm leaning towards the Bells, just because I can get it at Target, no special trips. Yeah....I'm that lazy.

    Founder's all-day IPA is a nice sessionable ale that seems to be more hop-forward than a traditional pale. It also is less calories!
