You have been drinking the wrong IPA. *I prefer IPA with strong hoppy
flavor such as Anchor IPA, Sierra Nevada IPA or Redhook IPA. *There are
lots of great regional IPA's even better than therse 3, but those three
are readily available nationally. *There are some nice ales, but "ale"
seems to cover such a broad range that too many of them are one note and
mild flavor.
Please send me some of your ale, and i will write up a detailed review.
Either a case or keg will allow me to give it the attention it deserves. *
Reggie, Anchor doesn't make an IPA. There is an Anchor Liberty Ale
that's quite good, though and close to an American Pale Ale. I like
Sierra Nevada IPA, and also their Wheat Beer is very good.
While they don't call it an IPA Anchor Liberty Ale really is an IPA

I only drink wheat beer in the summer with a twist of lemon.
No lemon needed with Sierra Nevada Wheat. Try it, you'll like it. No,
Liberty Ale isn't an IPA. It isn't even an American Pale Ale, but it's
closer to American than anything. It IS a very good beer, none the
less. Because of it's hybrid style, Beer Advocate calls it an APA.

It's hard to tell from your posts and those of Loogy that the two of you
have somewhat of an obsession with booze.- Hide quoted text -

Harry, do you realize that beer making has been going on for thousands
of years. It's a real lesson in history, chemistry, sanitation,
microbiology, etc. Of COURSE you don't like it because you don't do
it, nor have the brains to do it.

There's a guy over in North Grovesnordale who has a small micro
brewery - makes all kinds of exotic beers for the local establishments
and he does quite well.

Don't know if he puts lemon in his beer or not - have to ask him next
time I see him.

Anyway, what a lot of folks don't know is that he makes a root beer
and sarsaparilla that is unbelievable.

I buy a case of one each every other month or so and ration it. *It's
expensive, but man, it's all organic ingredients and made old school.

It's to die for man, I'll tell you what... *:)- Hide quoted text -

I make rootbeer for my kids. The ingredients are getting expensive
unless you go the Hire's concentrate route, which I don't. Haven't
made any in a couple of years, may do so sometime this spring. If so,
I'll keep you in mind.
