What is the hoppiest beer you have ever brewed?? I have a friend who says he loves the taste of hops and cant get enough so I thought I would test him on that one. I'm up for anything so bring on the crazy hoppy recipes!

Served on tap at Copenhagen Beerfestival 2007.
Crazy beer...insane stuff. This little Pale Ale is brewed with a huge amount of bittering hops with a theoretical IBU of 2007...
Pours out in a very hazy amber colour with a low white foam. Big and sweet hoppy aroma of flowers, oranges, pine-needles and pepper. The flavour...uhm...is just a wacky, trashing and burning hop fest of grass and pine-needles. Same thing in the finish; a pure hop-slam buzz. I'm not sure that I would drink I lot of this hop-juice but if I would stumble over it again, but...hops is the drug!
Serving type: on-tap

Hes starting to bottle now, so I could probably set up to send some to people if they were interested. Its definitley a beer for hop heads, it's uber intense.
The hoppiest beer I made was my Stone Clone. It was probably around 70 IBU's or so; pretty tasty stuff.

Shorts is one of my two favorite brew pubs. The alchemist, in waterbury vt is the other. The alchemist brews a lot of hoppy beer. Heathen(77.7 ibu), Holy cow, heady topper, elena, and on and on. The heady topper is quite strong, 8%, but it isn't too malty of a finish like some iipas. More than some, but hoppy bitterness is there to the end.
p.s. Who am I kidding about the "sipping"?
