The world’s best IPAs, according to Untappd’s ratings, include three beers by Massachusetts-based Treehouse Brewing Co. The brewery has the top-rated IPA on Untappd overall and three of the top five IPAs. But two other notable breweries also have top five honors in the IPA category: Russian River Brewing Co., in Santa Rosa, California, and Fidens Brewing Co. in Albany, New York. Russian River Brewing Co. has the second highest-rated IPA, and Fidens was tied for fourth—but notably had another beer, called Triple Jasper with Nelson, that just barely missed the top five.

Nice picture. IPAs don’t sit well on my stomach, so I avoid them. I have a friend who brews quite a bit and has a fan base. He told me when he gets a bad batch, he’ll call it an IPA and they fall all over themselves to get it. Hilarious.
“It seemed lacking something.”
That’s what the slide of orange is for.
Russian Rivers Pliny the Younger is impossible to find. IIRR it is small batched once a year with some kegs making to out to pubs and what not. It’s a big event and good luck getting into the pub as it is gone in a night. Supposedly it can be found at the brewery. They also make Pliny the Elder which is easier to come by and also excellent. I just had a bottle last week. Both beers are rated at the top of the scale 100 on Beer Advocate.
We like Blue Moon also and I love Shock Top.
Much prefer the wheat beers. Don’t like IPA one bit.
HAAAA! Now, that is funny. My son loves IPAs. I just don’t get it.
