Pros: Eases hop craving tensions Cons: Makes you want more hops
I love my hops, and there are times when nothing but a hop- accented brew will do. I get a little tired of the citrus- accented hops because so many different brewers use them to brew their pale ale and India pale ale. But there are times when these ...

Pros: Malty, hoppy, complex, delicious brew. Cons: None.
Every once in a great while, a beer comes along that is truly stellar in character. These beers don’t passively allow you to sip them as you would a glass of water; rather they jump up and seize hold of your taste buds, assault them with flavor and ...

Pros: Aroma and flavor of fresh American hops Cons: Could be bigger and bolder...
Anyone who loves the lusciously bitter flavor of a truly well-hopped beer can easily find dozens of great beers in any well-stocked retailer today. It wasn't always this way. In fact, only about 20 years ago there was but a single well-brewed India Pale...

Pros: good complex brew Cons: I've had hoppier
Lagunitas Brewing Co is a brewery with a reputation. They brew out of Petaluma, CA but their beers are highly sought out by beer geeks. This reputation has a lot of basis in quality. They do make some really fine brews. It has always been ...

Pros: Strips taste buds of pesky non-beer flavors Cons: Overshadows other worthy beers in its presence
While it seemed that you can't swing a dead cat in San Francisco without hitting a Lagunitas beer tap, and believe me I tried, those of us in the East are not exactly so fortunate. According to the brewery website (http://www.lagunitas.com), ...

Pros: Everything an IPA should be, with remarkable complexity. Cons: Limited distribution
Every once in a while a beer comes along that’s so wonderful I just have to share it with everyone else. With my own adventurous beer experimenting lifestyle, that occasion is usually every 3 or 4 days. One of my friends at work regularly asks me for my...

Pros: some hop and citrus taste Cons: expensive, weak abv
I had seen some of the brews from Lagunitas on the shelf at my local liquor superstore and have been intrigued. Plus, I’ve seen that some fellow Epinions writers that I respect enjoy the brewer. So, I decided to pay $8.99 for a six pack and check them ...

Pros: sweet, rich taste of hops and caramel; drinker-friendly; fairly light body Cons: taste is a little too rich; dry finish and aftertaste
I’m a huge fan of the India Pale Ale beer style, but I’m not so crazy about imperial versions since they tend to be a little too rich and not crisp enough for me. What would happen if an IPA had the taste of an imperial but the weight and ...

Pros: Bracing, zesty hop aroma and flavor, not scared to smack ya. Cons: Tongue Fatigue.
You shouldn't get in this game unless you gonna play.
IPA is the balls-to-the-wall arena of American microbrewing. The letters I P A are an excuse to get crazy with hops, the ingredient that has distinguished microbrewing...

Pros: Heavy hops, worth every penny you spend on a six pack Cons: none
Since I started appreciating the taste of hops a couple of years ago, I have search far and wide for an IPA in a bottle that can match the quality of a brew pub IPA. I found it in Lagunita's IPA.
The aroma is so hoppy and flowery as you pour...

Pros: Hoppy, Good head, Bitter Cons: Some sediment
A very Hoppy ale that carries a great head to the last drop.
Great for sipping after a couple of Lagunitas PILS(not listed on this site) This ale has a small amount of "ullage" (sediment). IPA has a pleasing aroma and has a superb bitter...

Pros: Hops hops hops Cons: Quality control?
Laugunitas IPA is a regular in my fridge, now more then ever, since they have released the product in 6 packs. The brew features a very solid hop backbone with good aroma. The malt is thin, as with an English style IPA (as opposed to Sierra Nevada and...

Pros: Unique and satisfying blend of malt and hops. Cons: Availability, price.
This India Pale Ale is an incredibly hoppy beer made with over forty-three varieties of hops at the Lagunitas Brewing Company in Petaluma California. Brewed in the old world tradition the complex ale has a light flowery aftertaste which finishes the...
