Abv Chicago Craft Beer Podcast

In our seemingly endless quest to find the best long-made IPA that America has to offer, we are a little all over the map on this one with a mix of Wisconsin and Western U.S. offerings to run through the blind scoresheet wringer. It’s a study in contrasts, as each clear IPA brings a little something different to the table - and then one just blatantly steals the show. Also, we imagine if GABF allowed us to curate their experience areas, we recall the days of IBU bombs, Craig is born anew yet again for this episode, and we invent cheese jibbets (and SlimJim-bets) for when you need a snack from those Crocs.  Beers Reviewed Blindly Stone Brewing - IPA Karben4 Brewing - Fantasy Factory Central Waters Brewing - Rift New Belgium Brewing - Voodoo Ranger IPA La Cumbre Brewing Company - Elevated IPA
