Friendship Brewing Company’s Bignose IPA is a classic American IPA featuring a deep golden-amber color, a medium body, and a 7.0% ABV. Its profile emphasizes citrus hops, pine resin, and floral notes, which are balanced by a supportive caramel malt backbone.
Papi Chulo is a 6.5% ABV New England-style hazy IPA crafted by Commonwealth Brewing Company. Brewed with Citra, Mosaic, and Idaho 7 hops, the beer balances juicy tropical fruit flavors with a controlled hop bitterness that prevents an overly sweet finish.
As a fan of classic West Coast IPAs, I'm always looking for beers that remember what made the style great before hazies took over the craft beer scene. Hawkley Brewing's DSG doesn't try to chase trends. Instead, it delivers a modern take on a traditional West Coast IPA with a focus on bright hop flavor, clean bitterness, and impressive drinkability.
If you're looking for a fruit-forward hazy IPA that leans more approachable than aggressive, Leinenkugel's Tropical Hazy IPA is an easy-drinking option that delivers exactly what its name promises. Featuring tropical fruit flavors and moderate bitterness, it's a solid choice for casual IPA fans, though it may not fully satisfy those seeking the juicy complexity of top-tier New England IPAs.

I typically will grab anything Pipeworks Brewing will release, so when I saw this stout I knew I had to grab it. Pipeworks made this in collaboration with Hacienda Beer Co out of Wisconsin. Did it live up to the…
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Main & Mill Brewing Co., but haven’t had a chance to try anything. Well, this is my chance (sorry, not sorry). I’d seen Rocco Gets His Chance on various St. Louis Beer…
I’m not the biggest Urban Chestnut fan (they make good beer, just not my styles), but when I saw they were making an American Lager to celebrate Stan Musial’s 100th birthday, I knew I had to try it. ABV: 4.50%IBU:…
