I like the IPAs that some of our smaller labels are putting out.
Missoula's Big Sky and Fort Collins' New Belgium are delicious. New
Belgium also has a brew called "Belgian style IPA.". It's basically just
a nice IPA with coriander added among the favors. Very weird to me
initially but it really grew on me. Knoxville, Iowa's Peace Tree's Hop
Wrangler is great, and one of my favorites from Decorah, Iowa --
Toppling Goliath's Golden Nugget.
This is one area in which life in America has really improved.
