I was just @ the New Belgium Brewery last month. They have some good beers. Love their Belgium Tripel, and the 1554 Black Ale. The Blue Paddle Pilsner is good too. Sunshine Wheat, can't comment, don't like wheat beers. Something about putting fruit in beer i just can't deal with. Fat Tire...meh....i'll live fine if i don't ever have one of those again tho.

They have one called La Folie, aged 3 years. It's shocking. Tastes like vinegar, but somehow, i can't decide if i like it or not...but keep drinking it, and actually, just bought another bottle of it today.

That's cool jenks. The 'rents live in Ft. Collins. New Belgium has some great seasonal beers, I'm not a fan of the sunshine wheat either. Did you at least get a chance to try any or Odell's Cutthroat of 90 Schilling while in CO? My two favs.

My experience is limited with IPA's, but here in Canada we get Alexander Keith's IPA brewed only in Nova Scotia the last 210 years.

It's the most popular IPA in Canada.

Most decent liquor stores. Most people have Sierra Nevada or Red Hook IPA, both of which are okay, but the smaller breweries are really kicking some ass with IPA. Every city i go to i try and check out the local breweries and get local with the beer. You'll get some fantastic beers you'll never see anywhere else.

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. THEY DO NOT MAKE AN IPA SUCKERS. FUCKING KNOW YOUR BEER YOU CHUMS.

You might want to do some research on that asdf... They do make an IPA it is just not labled that way on the bottle. Oh and by the way it is a great IPA!

that is there Celebration ale. not there IPA, they have never had one. it is based of an IPA. There is no way in hell that is an IPA. I am a hardcore Sierra Nevada fan + IPA's is one of my top fav beers and that still at this moment that is no IPA.

You have to classify beers, and the Celebration ale has characteristics of a traditional IPA, yet it has other ingredients added. That is why Sierra Nevada does not call it IPA, but rather Celebration Ale.

hesh.

I bought a 6-pk of IPA in Nashua, NH while I was there on business last week. The name was Smutnose It was super hoppy, more so than most IPAs. For normal IPAs, I usually drink Red Hook (mild, but strong) and Bridgeport (very hoppy). IPA is definitely my favorite style of beer.
