Jerry Mendez is drinking a Purple Moss by Hop Butcher For The World at IBU Taproom & Bottle Shop
This taproom is close to hotel and has a great selection of IPAs- it was tough to pick one, so pick one with a MN connection? Purple Rain/Randy Moss😀 Playoff 🏀 & 🏒 on🙌...this is a very good IPA- sweet, hazy, thick, juicy, slightly bitter & strong👏

Jerry Mendez is drinking a J1M by Rubber Soul Brewing Company at Rubber Soul Brewing Co.
Jaime this one is for you (J1M- just one more🤣)- you know this had to be the one...and an excellent NE IPA it is. A DDH with oats and a good blend of hops.

Jerry Mendez is drinking a Field Study IPA by Tröegs Independent Brewing at Tröegs Independent Brewing
Sadly not the best for last, this one is very tart- stronger grapefruit taste and too many other flavors- melon and pear?. At least I saved the regular Graffiti for last.

Jerry Mendez is drinking a Graffiti Highway Double IPA by Tröegs Independent Brewing at Tröegs Independent Brewing
This is a stronger version of Graffiti Hwy which I had during my last visit to this area. It's juicier and more tangy than its IPA brother. This DIPA has more taste and it's stronger- 9.5%er🥴
