Extreme Beers

I liked this article out of the New York Times, which showcases a (tasty) trend among microbreweries - taking beer to the extremes. To the point of this article, one of my favorite beers is "Hop Wallop," a seasonal hop filled beer characterized by the drunken 49er, Horace 'Hop' Wallop. It's so damn hoppy that it tastes like Christmas trees, but it's fantastic. It's made by Victory Brewing Company out of Downingtown, PA, an upstart brewery who has recently received national distribution for their delicious beers.

Hop Wallop is only around during the winter, but it's (I dare classify) lighter cousin, Hop Devil, is also a phenomenal brew.
