Have you ever wondered if your brewery biases influence how you rate a beer? Do you think you’d be able to identify your beer in a blind tasting lineup? Adam and Drew bring on their very first guest Ryan for a very special hop-forward blind beer tasting event to crown the winner of the Best Flagship IPA in Houston, TX! These aren’t the small lot darlings, these are the higher production IPA’s that you’re likely to find in stores outside of the Houston area. We’ll put five beers to the test while also discussing the evolution and explosion of the Houston beer scene.
