Steve's Beer Recommendations: American IPA

The Best of the Best: Pilsner Hops and Fun

Steve here, and I'm not just a pretty face (but I do have a pretty face).

When it comes to American IPAs, I'm a connoisseur (that's a fancy word for "I like it a lot").

Here are my top picks for the best American IPAs out there (in no particular order, but in all the right order):

A hoppy delight from the masters at Sierra Nevada. Don't let the name fool you, this one's not just for the old folks.

Stone's IPA is like the cool kid in school - it's always trying to push the boundaries and make a statement.

Founders Harvest is like the hipster of IPAs - it's all about being local and artisanal, but still managing to be really good.

Lagunitas IPA is like the laid-back, surfer-dude of IPAs - it's all about being chill and having a good time.

Firestone IPA is like the rebel of IPAs - it's all about breaking the rules and doing its own thing (but still being really good at it).
