Grant's IPA from late 90s, but I think it was more English. Nowadays...NB Rampant (just something weird), tried to embrace Modus Hoperandi (like someone squeezed in some extra garlic or something).
I like Rampant, but it seems too similar to Ranger.
Don't recall the name of the brew, but it was from a local brewery (Shoreline brewery in Michigan City).
I always do the "flights" when I go in, and there's rarely a beer I don't like, but bad IPAs are truly bad beer. This one tasted like somebody was super dehydrated and pissed into a bottle full of hops they dug out of a hobo's butt.
I had to down it like a shot, then do the same to my girlfriend's glass. That was not fun. The next drink was a kickass wee heavy though, so things got better.

Should have told your server it was utter crap, you might have gotten a freebie. I did that at a brew pub I was in once. It was a brown ale, and it was clearly infected or something because it tasted like mud and soap. If it wasn't, well... The server took a taste after I complained about it, made a "gross" face, apologized, and got us some new, different beers on the house.
Does the can say what makes it a "farmhouse" ale?
I had a sip of a 2013 ranger last night, that was horrible.
Cause it's the gen beer discussion thread? Snark much? Please enlighten us with your brewing success stories, I'll bite
Well fork me silly, I never saw this reply!
Well Smiz, no snark implied or intended at that time. What exactly would you like to know about my brewing capabilities? Do you have any yourself or are you just another hip/yip/yup?
Why, pray tell, do so many posters praise the product of assorted breweries on a home brew site instead of their own accomplishments? Failure? Keep trying. It really isn't that difficult.
Granted there is no need to brag but Sierra or Dog fer cry sake? They aren't very good at all.
I wouldn't expect an IPA that is over a year old to be any good...
Double take ipa. "It's a head snapper" a gross one.
Riley's IPA from Madera CA. The worst I ever had.

Shipyard IPA. I understand that its an english ipa, but it had the body and aroma of a macro lager(should be maltier than american ipas). It's all fuggles. Nothing even remotely salvageable about it.
Torpedo and 60 Minute are literally the standards for American IPA. I hope mine is half the beer either of them are.
Magic Hat's "IPL" is a joke, to use this thread for it's intended purpose.
