Ballast Point IPA is for hopheads. It's a malty brew too, with four malts to balance the high IBU (around 55).

Brewed by the Ballast Point Brewing Company in San Diego, California.

As a hophead myself, and comparing it to the likes of Stone IPA, or Dogfish Head 90 minute, I'd have to put it in third place, but that's only by a whisker. I really do enjoy this beer, but it doesn't have that 'something' that the others have.

Still on a scale of ten, I'd give it at least 7.5.
