It's #IPADay - version 2 - last year was such a great success it, of course, needed to happen again! This year we pay homage to a couple of the non-traditional version of IPAs out there. We start off with a traditional IPA from Speakeasy, Vendetta, and then move on to an Indian Brown Ale, from Dogfish Head, which is a combination of a brown ale, a scotch ale, and dry-hopped like an IPA. Lastly we dive into Wookey Jack from Firestone Walker, a delicious rye Black IPA. We woo hoo, a lot. Matt has way too many keys, Stephen makes up beers but knows his damn candy bars, John has no respect for the wine world and hates Belgians .. We talk about the craft beer conversion process, and the road "generally" taken. We'd love to hear your conversion path! Tell us in the comments. In the coming weeks, we'll be celebrating with The Full Pint with their 5th anniversary party at Naja's Place on August 10th, and then on August 12th we'll be celebrating with Blue Palms for their 4th Anniversary, and we'll be celebrating with Stone Brewing Co for their 16th Anniversary on the 17th .. We're giving away two tickets to the Blue Palms Anniversary, watch the show to find out how you can win! Also, Stephen has joined the Dye Hards, and is looking for your support! He'll be dying his beard red for the event.
