We just got Lord Hobo in Ohio - boom sauce is supposed to be a NEIPA but its not hazy at all. Awesome intense hop flavor but a bit to bitter and not hazy.

I am really jealous of all the people in Boston who get to drink Trillium all the time.

For IPAs I am also really impressed by Burial in Asheville. Hawkbill is almost perfect.

Jigsaw Jazz is wicked hazy.

We should do a Paceline beer swap.

Treehouse is straight up my favorite brewery on the planet. But I also love NE IPAs. Other Half is my local favorite. Their newest DDH All Green Everything batch was one of the best they've ever done. Trillium and Alchemist are close behind - Focal Banger and Heady Topper are still some of the best cans out there. Lawson's is now distributed in NYC so I've been on a Sip on Sunshine kick lately.

As far as nationally distributed beer (MillerCoors/InterBev) I love Lagunitas and Elysian. Bell's is great too (Two Hearted is maybe my favorite national IPA) and I really wish Hopslam was year-round.

We are a house partially divided....

She likes Green Cheek Beer Co. Good Vibes, followed very closely by their Member IPA as position 1A and 1B. Docent Brewing Gimme for 2 and Tustin Brewing Old Town for 3.

I like Old Town, Good Vibes, and Archaic Brewery Golden Road in that order, though when I can I would put Berryessa Brewing's Separation Anxiety right in there as well. Not to put any pox on Green Cheek or Docent.

We are in a land of plenty....

I have tried to have NYC friends send me Other Half before and they just laugh. I guess the can releases are totally crazy?

Would love to try treehouse as I have heard nothing but good things...

Not anymore! They majorly expanded their facility (new taproom too) a couple months ago and have upped production. Just picked up 2 4 packs from Today's mid-week release with no wait. Major collabs can have lines of up to 600 people tho, which is madness.

Three Weavers: Expatriate
Strand Brewery: Atticus

When they sell to the big guys, I'm sure that another one can take their place as my favorite.

Some good suggestions to try from this list!

I'll second a few others who've said Green Flash and Ninkasi offerings.

Pittsburgh's own Big Hop from East End Brewery always does the trick for me too.
