Buying advice

When choosing an IPA consider the balance between hop intensity, malt sweetness, and alcohol level. Higher-ABV options like Torpedo or Stone deliver bold bitterness, while session styles such as All Day IPA are better for extended drinking. Price and availability also vary, so match the beer to your palate and budget.
