    damn they sound pretty potent and good!  I'm gonna have to give them a try. thanks for the explanation steve and bentleypop!
    any go to ones that you guys would recommend?
    A lot of the "better" New England style IPAs are very regional and not getting wide distribution. In my area the beers from ODD13 in Lafayette, CO are in demand. As for an actual New England style IPA from New England I would recommend Lawson's Sip of Sunshine.
    Would recommend anything from Tree House or Trillium over Lawson's Sip.

    I like Lawson’s Sip, but agree that Trillium’s IPAs are better. They make a ton of amazing IPAs. I would also highly rank Bissell Brothers.

    AAAAHHHHHHH!!!
    If you look close you will see a bad word that starts with S.
    I bought this without seeing that word, what do I do with this?
    Anybody want it (for free)?
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    You could probably pour that S@!R beer around your house to keep all the intruders and bugs and insects out???

    Sour cream, sour kraut, sour candy, kombucha, sour dough and beer, I all love.
    Sour beer actually tastes worse every time I try it.

    It's strong alcohol content wise but I've never had a Mad Elf I've liked.  Year after year, it tastes like the puke when you throw up slightly in your own mouth and swallow it back down.  To me, anyway.

    A lot of people I know swear by it, though.  Probbaly just because two or three of them will get you pretty wasted.  I think it's digusting, however..

    Pffft... Stick to an IPA.

    In all seriousness I had a real beer snob say that to me years ago when I complained that a "pumpkin beer" by their favorite brewery didn't taste like pumpkin...  All spice only and no hint of pumpkin.  The brewery?  Jolly Pumpkin, lol.
