The Take
Sierra Nevada IPA is not healthy. Alcohol never is. It is however the rare six-pack that actually tastes like beer instead of industrial malt liquor dressed up with marketing.
The brewery stays independent and family-owned while every other big craft name sells out. That keeps the recipe simple and the hops real.
The Verdict
Sierra Nevada IPA proves you can still buy beer that was made by brewers instead of focus groups. The clean bitter finish and simple ingredient list beat every ultra-processed canned cocktail pretending to be craft.
Order a six-pack when you want beer that tastes like beer.
