Hi guys, first time poster, long time beer drinker, looking to start up homebrewing my own IPA. Just doing some light research and thought I could add to this thread.
No, Grand Ridge doesn't do an IPA, I was actually thinking about contacting them to suggest it.
The Holgate Hopinator is a 7.0% Double IPA in the NW American style, it is one of the finest drops I've had the pleasure of drinking. Sadly it's a limited release seasonal summer beer and will be hard to find. My local craftbrew specialist is out of it and sick of me asking, their chocolate porter will be out soon. Jamiesons Brewery have Jamiesons Beast another 7.0% Double IPA that's available year round, that's also a NW American style and might be a bit intense for a first try for the style.
James Squire/Malt Shovel do traditional British IPA. Cases at Dan Murphys for $50. They also stock one from W.A Gage Roads IPA $13 sixer - $55 case. On the pricier side Mountain Goat brewery have a certified organic IPA that is absolutely divine. I've seen it as high as $27 a six pack though!
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.
