For pretty much the last two decades, the IPA has been the No. In that time, we’ve seen the beer industry go from malty English IPAs to dank West Coast options — teeth-chatteringly bitter double and then triple and even quadruple IPAs — to softer, fruitier, and hazier New England-style options.
And though people love to loathe them, IPAs are the current bread and butter of the American craft brewing industry. Part of the style’s success are its numerous substyles, which have allowed IPAs to straddle nearly every major beer category on the market. There’s very little that the IPA hasn’t been able to achieve.
Martha A neighborhood institution since 2015, Martha has a twinkling backyard bocce court, eclectic furnishings, and “fantastic cocktails,” Ducos says. The global wine list leans toward minimal-intervention bottles, and the beer selection features several Pennsylvania breweries. It’s pretty impressive what they offer.”
By 2015, that production had shifted to other parts of the country, and Athenian reimagined the space as Athineos, a microbrewery, museum, and laboratory. Strange Brew’s flagship, the Jasmine IPA, is a must-try, offering aromatic tropical fruits and relaxing jasmine notes.
The chain has also rolled out a standardized backbar program that includes spirits outside of the specialty cocktails, with a focus on high-velocity bottles that consistently deplete in its system, Hagen adds. NFL All-Pro quarterback Drew Brees joined the Walk-Ons team as co-owner in 2015. Drink prices range from $12 to $14.
While Mars was able to sell off older bottles of aged whisky expressions for a short time following the initial closure, once stocks ran out, the distillery was mothballed entirely. Ahead of Japan hosting its first Summer Games since 1964, Mars partnered with the Chichibu Distillery in 2015 to produce a whisky to commemorate the event.
I’d go to his house and he would be brewing up some crazy things, something called an IPA, which I had no idea about. He was drinking a bunch of these IPAs and brews around the time they were trying to figure out how much booze they could stick into a beer: double IPA, triple IPA, imperial style. So I felt bad.

He started at Angry Orchard in 2015 and starred in TV commercials for the country’s largest cidery. Big flavor is a selling point in beverage alcohol, from potent Buzz Ballz cocktails like Sour Apple Chiller to New Belgium’s Voodoo Ranger line of imperial IPAs, including punch-like Fruit Force and Juice Force.
Vermont is designated territory for hazy IPAs, Montana is the land of Scotch ales , and Minnesota is the dominion of Russian imperial stout. Dawn of Darkness After kegs of Darkness ran dry at Café Twenty-Eight, folks started anticipating the 750-milliliter bottle release from Surly in December 2007.
offers a few crowd-favorites, including its Fuzzy Baby Ducks IPA and its Star Wars-inspired Imperial Stout Trooper. BrewDog vs. The Lone Wolf Bar Scottish bar-brewery conglomerate BrewDog trademarked its vodka brand Lone Wolf in 2015, so when a Lone Wolf Bar opened in Birmingham, U.K. Arnold Palmer Enterprises Inc.: vs. Lucasfilm Ltd.
Here’s what we thought were tops: Steve’s Best Beer: Windmill’s Luelle As beer styles go, West Coast IPAs are my go-to. I got to try it again at Fulton on Black Friday while there muling for someone and I was lucky enough to grab two more bottles: one to drink and one to trade. It was a good year of drinking.
As a student, to be able to take him a bottle and with a shaky hand say, Hello, sir, what do you think of this? I had seen that American interpretations of IPA werent the British IPA, but it changed the world to people knowing about IPA, Chasko says. And for him to say, I like it. I got a bit of confidence, Chasko says.
Longman and Eagle will be selling some hard-to-find bottles including Blanton’s, Eagle Rare, Weller and others starting this Monday. Maplewood has entered their corn-beer era with this West Coast IPA brewed with Iowa’s Barntown Brewing. Need a last minute present for a whiskey lover? Guessing they won’t last long.
Excess equaled excellence in IPAs and imperial stouts, and customers craved more, more, more. Drinkers emerged to an altered alcohol landscape, one where moderation and wellness aligned with a recovering society, and newly tasty NA beers ably scratched that IPA itch. Modern brewing boomed in the 2010s by extending beer to extremes.
These touchstones will exist as long as brewers continue to pump out cans and bottles, and they act as calm amid marketplace chaos. Think of all the good beer you could have bought with that $20 you spent on one bottle. Hazy IPA is one of two most overrated beer styles in my opinion (the second being fruited blonde ales).
