Ruination is a very good beer, but it's a palate blaster for a newb...

Matherne's and Whole Foods sell it in the big bottle, but you'll need to make a Spec's run to get cases of 12 oz. I empty the shelves of a few Spec's when making HTown visits.
Much prefer the smoother IPA taste of say Sierra Nevada or Bear Republic,etc..over the extra bitter version of IPAs like Clown Shoes or Stone,etc..

I've tried Rayon Vert...a little too much for me now.

Thanks Stache...will add those to the list.

I think hopitoulas would be a good gateway to IPAs. Its not as hoppy as endeavour and some others and its an easy drinker, and readily available

Was tempted to try It the other day...I have had endeavor and enjoyed it. I'm lookin forward to expanding my tastes.

Check out and post in the FBD threads
Expanding our tastes is what it's all about
And maybe a little bragging from time to time

Same here. Current fave is Abita Jockamo.

St. Arnold Endeavour is one of my favorite beers.
Sierra Nevada Torpedo is quite good too.
NOLA Mechahopzilla is excellent. A few places in BR have it on draft (Bulldog, Radio Bar) and a canned version will be out soon.
I also like Red Hook Longhammer. They have it at Albertson's and on draft at a few places, like Radio Bar.

No one mentioned Bell's Two Hearted?

Try Green Flash Hop Head Red.
Favorite IPA is Heady Topper. Closely followed by Pliny the Elder and Surly Abrasive.
Others that are on te list and a little easier to get (available in nearby states) are Boulevard Double Wide, Cigar City Jai Alai, Bells Two Hearted.

Don't buy old IPAs that have been sitting on the shelf for months collecting dust.
