Yep - 100% agreement here. This and Lagunitas are among the best IPA's in the U.S.

Our local late-night liquor store only carries one Dogfish brew: 90 minute IPA. My friend and I polished off 2 four-packs just last night. Brilliant beer.
This may be slightly off-topic, but can anyone recommend a good tequila? My staple at the moment is 1800 Reposado, which is a decent price performer. I'm not looking to spend $50/bottle.
Milagro Reposado.
I would say this is exactly what this thread is for, good alcohol conversation without LOL IM DRUNK posts.
I just ordered more wine. I think i've figured out how wine pricing works, it seems to be more to do with how long it will cellar for rather than the actual quality. Doesn't bother me as I tend to drink my wine fairly soon after purchasing it :p
I'm doing mine early:
Wailing Wench from Middle Ages Brewing Company (http://www.middleagesbrewing.com/)
From the opinionated beer page:
Steve: There is a beautiful woman on the label. Picture: Mid 80's Molly Ringwald, with long red hair, fantastic cleavage, in a "beer wench" costume (like that found at Rennaisance festivals), with her mouth opened in...how do I put this?....fellatio mode. Yeah, that's the best way to phrase it, I think. Just absolutely beautiful. Of course, the wonderful label made me automatically think the beer would blow, much like the Molly lookalike is about to. But friends, I am here to tell you this beer most certainly did not blow. In fact, I will sing its praises. Wonderfully hopped, this is an extreme beer, an American strong ale. I could both drink this all day, and stare at the label all day. An almost-perfect drinking experience. (8/13/2006)
