Jax I am really big on stouts. I like really malty beers with a lot of caramel type notes. I am drinking more and more Ipa's and liking them more and more. I just started drinking the 90 minute ipa and it is my new favorite probably because it has a good bit of malt at the end. And the abv.

Are red ipa's malty also? I think I have tried a black Ipa or two that I liked. Is Founders Dissenters Ale a black Ipa?

Red IPAs and imperial red ales tend to have more of a malt backbone. Lagunitas Red is another good one

Dissenter is an IPL (lager)

t's pale ale, as every single IPA is a pale ale. But according to BJCP, it is an IPA. At least by IBU standards. Pale ales top out at 40 IBU's i believe.
Brewers Association:

American-Style Pale Ale
ABV: 4.40% - 5.40%
IBU: 30 - 50

Zombie Dust
ABV: 6.20%
IBU: 60

American-Style India Pale Ale
ABV: 6.30% - 7.60%
IBU: 50 - 70

It does land closer to an IPA. It would be nice to know its actual OG/FG to compare.

Red IPAs use caramel malts. So yes they are more pronounced in their maltiness.

Would you say it is similar to 90 minute but with more maltiness?

90 minute and hop head red arent very close is flavor profiles imo. I would say hhr is piney with a strong malt backbone while 90 min is much sweeter.

I can give you a ton of different answers if you ask me tomorrow, the next day and so on. Not gonna argue with you if you tell me such and such is better. This is simply off the top of my head.

Pale Ale - Zombie Dust
IPA - La Cumbre Elevated IPA
DIPA - Heady Topper
Porter - Founders Porter
Imperial Porter - Ballast Point Victory at Sea
Stout - Terrapin Moo Hoo
Imperial Stout - Founders Breakfast Stout
Barrel Aged Stout - Bourbon County Coffee
Saison - Boulevard Tank 7

Trappist style Belgians have fallen out of favor with me at the moment.

Sours - Lost Abbey Red Poppy
