This is the IPA list for people who don’t what they are talking about. It should be called 5 IPAs people have heard of because they are mass marketed by multinational corporations. (Aside from pliny which is ok.)
If I can find it within 3 months of packaging Jai Alai by Cigar City is a fave. I loved Ruthless Rye by Sierra Nevada, glad they are bringing it back in a variety pack 🍻❤️
Some of these comments are absurd. These are the top recommended. If someone who has not developed a pallet for IOAs is asking me, I’m not recommending Heady Topper. I’m recommending something more accessable.
There are plenty of places where several of these are either unattainable, or sitting on a shelf for 4 months. Unless you live in CA, NV or PA, your not getting Pliney and as noted above, I’ll take Blind Pig from RR, over that.
How or why would you pick a favorite list?? Ridiculous. So many beers out there & who are these experts? I’ve had plenty of beer in my day & am planning on many more. Pretty sure that makes me an expert. BTW. We rule the craft beer world in Iowa!!
Well not sure I agree with any of your selections but it is very subjective in any event
Just had a Pliney The Elder and it would not make my personal top 25 but again, so subjective!

All this list is is a Top 40 list of best selling mass produced craft beers. Nothing of any substance or accuracy in this article.

Where are the non-fruity IPA’s? This list is closer to a favorite New England style IPA list.

Have you tried Electric Jellyfish by Austin’s Pinthouse Pizza? My personal favorite ever.
