Bell's
4.9
(16)
"TWO HEARTED ALE"
"This is the only IPA I can stand, it would be a good choice."

Sierra Nevada
4.2
(13)
"Sierra Nevada IPA. I call it ol’ reliable. It isn’t too hoppy. It isn’t like drinking rotten grapefruit either. I always keep some around."
"Sierra Nevada makes a Hazy that's very good and had lots of tropical"
"Sierra Nevada's Hoptimum is also very good."
"All of Sierra Nevada is good"
"Sierra Nevada is the classic APA starter."

"Hazy Little Thing is one of my go-tos"
"Sierra Nevada for west coast IPA"
"Sierra Nevada Pale Ale"
"Pilsner Urquel, Stone IPA, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. I would expect you'd like at least one of them if not all of them."
