Dogfish 120 minute, Southern Tier Unearthly, Swamp Ape IPA, and Pensecola Bay L'il Napolean at Hop Jacks in Pensecola paired w/ Belguim fries fried in duck fat.


All of that except for the Swamp Ape sounds wonderful. The fries there are quite good.

I am going to chill a homptimum that I have stored.

I have a mandatory meeting that I have to attend at 6:30 related to volunteering at the SF Street Food Festival, but there will be drinks there so maybe they will have an IPA. Going to try and not drink the Pliny or Blind Pig that are set aside for people, but I make no guarantees.

Swamp Ape was our least favorite. Moved onto World of Beer for SmuttyNose Finest kind IPA and a Peak Organic Hop Noir

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but RateBeer gives it a 100 and BeerAdvocate gives it a 95.

To me it is only slightly below Pliney.

I don't like IPA's. They taste funny to me (like a gym sock). I really like white beers, wheat beers, blonde ales and belgian style ales.
funny, i think some whites and most wheats taste like a gym sock.

Stone Pale Ale also, then maybe move on to the Sierra Nevada Torpedo and Stone IPA.
this is my suggestion as well.

Add hopitoulas. Ive given it to people who have never tried ipas and people who had bad experiences but ended up really liking this beer. Im sure they have it at the barley oak.
