+1. This is probably my favorite commercially available beer. Period.
Most of them are from Cali or Vermont... or I make them myself in NJ.
Low malt presence, quite dry, little to no crystal, pale, crisp, easy drinking, light to medium light body, citrusy, fruity, tropical, piney, and/or dank with highly aromatic and hop forward with smooth, but high bitterness.
Kern, Alpine, Russian River, Hill Farmstead, Lawsons... and Surly is also good.

Bell's two hearted....oh, and I had a Trinity "Slap you Mammy" at Oskar Blues while on vacation a couple of weeks ago. Wow....

Without a doubt, my favorite is still Dogfish 90 minute. Pliny is a close second.

My favorites are Lagunitas IPA and DFH 60 minute. There are only a few I haven't fully enjoyed (raging ***** is actually one of them... haven't found a single Belgian style beer I'm into).
Also Saranac IPA is really tasty (though I'm not sure if I'd quite call it an IPA). And at less than 7 a six pack one can't complain much.

Just getting into IPA's, today it's MacTarnahan's Summer Grifter seasonal, $2 bomber, and very tasty. I've got a Rogue Brutal IPA in primary, and today ordered NB's Dead Ringer. Happy IPA Day

My favorite by far is Troegs Nugget Nectar. Also Troegs Perpetual IPA and Southern Tier 2XIPA are pretty great.
