HST *clink*

Just getting to add my latest DIPA favorites, and the Alchemy Hour is one of them. I grew up in CLE(hts) drinking GLBC and am glad to have them in it big time, and in my local market (RDU) finally. Look for Lake Erie Monster as well.

Others on the latest list:

Smuttynose Big A - their standard IPA is weak, imho...but the Big A is a stand-out.

Sierra Bigfoot - labelled barleywine, this one is just a little sweet and way hoppy...borderline DIPA in my book.

And of course, the one by which all others are judged...Hopslam. World-class, yes. Worthy of the insane hype? Not so much. Local bottle shop sold 10 cases at $18/6pk, limit one 6pk/person/day...in 4 hours.
