      Potentially the best IPA on the market right now.  Citra and Mosaic hops galore for a nice citrus kick with very little bitter on the back end.  Melvin is out of Wyoming and has limited distribution right now…but watch out, they'll be coming to a store near you someday soon to dominate the IPA section.

      This beer has pretty much ruined me for other beers, I haven't drank much else for the last year-and-a-half.  Colorado has some of the best beer on the planet, so that's saying something.

      Cheers!

          I have drank hundreds of IPA's from all over the world and was also home brewing my own until I realized that the beer around me was way too good to try and compete with on my time frame.

          Although individual tastes differ, even within the style, everyone I have introduced this beer to is now drinking it.  My good friend that drinks sours exclusively will even drink this.  I think they are only in 4 states now.  Colorado, Oregon, Washington and Wyoming.

          Melvin is expanding rapidly, I hope they are able to maintain the quality as they increase the quantity.

          If you get a chance…go for it.

            ^Sounds like you're a rep for Melvin…  😉

            And whilst I'm not a rep for HF, this is fucking PERFECT. Elegant, balanced, complex; could drink it all day, every day...

              I WISH!!!!  Can't even get a bit of swag from those dang Wyoming hop heads.  But sadly I am forced to only accept the best…and right now they are top tier.

              I love farmhouse ales...a dry hopped Pale sounds right up my alley!  Enjoy that!

                      @Seul Time to get drinking!

                      @Matty123 While the East Coast and the West Coast were battling it out these genius bastards in Wyoming changed the game.  No Coast, just an incredibly balanced IPA made with top end ingredients.

                                  Always an advocate for The Bruery.  They're in Anaheim, well, Placentia, so you might even be able to sneak in a trip to the tasting room, if you try hard enough.

                                        Nice pickup! I enjoyed that one quite a bit myself, let me know what you think of it.
                                        I'm going out to the brewery today to grab a bottle of Synthesis Analogous, one of their beers that I haven't gotten to try yet.

                                            I love that stuff.  Bought some with Seul when I was with him last time in Belgium…..
