I will have to give that one another try. A good friend of mine praises it constantly also so this may be a sign from on high I think that my personal tastes are more directed at the variations instead of just the direct pounding of hops (such as the 471 which I keep hating and friends think I am a philistine because of).

Inversion IPA is my all-time favorite! ~And I know I’m not alone in this one. I don’t normally wear clothing with logos on it, but my Deschutes Inversion IPA shirt is a rare exception; the product is just so damn good I want to proselytize!

If you thought Inversion IPA was too much at 80 IBU’s, give Sierra Nevada’s BigFoot Barley Wine-style Ale a try… at 90 IBU’s you just may taste it in your mouth the next morning. Medical grade hoppiness!

Maybe I will attempt this approach when I get to the pilsner section. Thanks for the compliment!

Thanks for posting all the great information. This is a very enjoyable read and you clearly have a great knowlege of beer and a palate to match. I just have one suggestion: conduct a blind taste test or don’t bother. The results will surprise you every time.

Believe it or not, I have had it on tap at one of the local pubs out here, and it is fabulous!

If you ever get a shot, try Green Flash Brewing Co.’s IPA. It is 7.3% ABV and 95 IBUS….out of San Diego

yes sadly there are not enough places to acquire the mighty O’dell brews but, according to them, that is the confirmed plan thus far. drink responsibly.

IPA is a dragon of many heads. much like a hydra or tiamat one must attack each in its own right.
Props to 471 for having a distributor in Texas unlike O’dell. this makes me a sad panda.
Also for the heaviest, cok punchin’ist, evil beer on the planet also feel free to sample the elusive Avery Monster or Mephistopholese

I am surprised that nobody has not post any messages.
This was a great experiment and I am proud of you and Dave that you guys did a great job
I am not a drinker but your test can give me some idea whichi beer to try.

Thanks for the kind words Alex. That Breck Brew is simply other worldly. I think you will like it.
