I found I preferred their Union Jack. Not a double nor an American nor whatever, just a straight up IPA. I do have a Double Jack in the beer fridge though, just to keep the Union Jacks company and for when I'm in the mood.

I agree. Double jack is almost too clear and clean for a double. Impressive from a brewing perspective, but I like a little more flavor. Really liking steelhead right now for a double.

West coast is great, near top of my list.

Green Flash is good stuff and it seems like Green Flash is everywhere in MA now, but not so much in CT. Looks like an East coast brewery is coming to VA which should help that situation.

Spent some time in North Hampton this week and found this

Le Freak™
Ale

An ‘out of the box’ modern ale crafted by converging two beer styles, Belgian Trippel and American Imperial IPA. Dry-Hopped and Bottle-Conditioned – it’s a zesty brew with enticing American hop and fruity Belgian yeast aromatics.

I liked it, but definitely not your everyday IPA.

Great beer spot in that neck of the woods as well. Good foodie spot too.

Finally doing VT in May. Mapping the course out now. Lawson's, Hill Farmstead, Alchemist and anything in between!

I am enjoying a nice crisp Stone IPA and it has great finish.
I can't tell you how much I dislike the Sam Adams Latitude IPA's et al. Not too many beers I find offensive but these remind me of skunked up Moosehead.
