I&#8217;m a fan of the hoppy flavor that IPA&#8217;s are known for, and Moylan&#8217;s IPA definitely brings the hops (in fact, it is dry hopped with two hop varieties). Unfortunately, the fruity hops flavor seems to overpower the rest of the beer like a choir without its bass and baritones. Moylan&#8217;s also makes a Double IPA which I have heard good things about but have not yet tried. That beer is described as having an&#8221;&#8230;enormous malt backbone like naughty monkeys on a vine.
