Hoppiest commercial brew you have ever drank?

You would make a killing

Topcutter by bale breaker brewery is by far the most hop forward IPA I have tasted. It was almost just a hop tea rather than a beer. Pliny has great aroma and as is mentioned enjoy by does too. But overall I think bale breaker is hoppiest.

Bootlegging HeadyTopper out of New England... new career?

If they weren't restricting its sale so tightly it would be a good gig....... You'd never make a living on it right now.

Pliny of course for all around"hoppy".
I had some Ballast Point IPA at a local place, not sure which IPA it was, but you could smell the citrus a block away, I was very impressed with that beer.

Ruination and Torpedo are my go to commercial IPAs, both readily available and very tasty IMO.

Palette Wrecker for me!

Sigh. Another dream job dashed to pieces.

White Rajah, Bodhi, and Head hunter are all awesome hoppy beers

I agree so far. Its my absolute favorite. Sucks that getting my hands on some requires so much logistics

Tell me about it... My in law drove 12+ hours to get two cases... Just a perfect beer from top to bottom

Palette Wrecker for me!

I finally got a chance to try Palette Wrecker last night. It's a very solid beer, but I was shocked to read that it's 149 IBUs. I guess my palette has already been wrecked! I didn't think it was any more bitter than Lagunitas Sucks, which has a very pronounced resiny hop flavor, or Green Flash Green Bullet, which is kind of similar to Sucks. I also didn't think Hop Stoopid was all that bitter. Wish I could get my hands on some Heddy Topper, Hopslam, or Pliney here in Texas. My LHBS had a homebrew Pliney clone on tap that I tried the other day, and it was seriously good. I think the clerk said they used a full pound of hops in a 5 gallon batch. Not sure of the specific addition times. So I guess Ruinition is the hoppiest I've ever had, but it's been a long time since I've tried it.

Hopiest? Enjoy By.

Bitterest? Circa 1992 Sierra Nevada

Skagit River Gospel IPA is definitely the most bitter, harsh IPA I've ever had. I love it, and to me it's a good bitter, but my guess is that it's not for everyone.
