Finally, my first beer post, kind of. Now, I’m not a beer snob, nor do I have the tongue to point out all the little subtleties from one beer to the next, as well as proper usage of the lingo used by beer fanatics/connoisseurs alike (I’d like to at some point though).
Anyway, I picked this up the other day. Flying Fish Exit 16 – Wild Rice Double IPA. From my previous experiences, I never quite got into IPA’s. Not entirely sure why, maybe I find them a tad too hoppy for my personal preferences? But, I enjoyed this one for sure!
This Exit Series is pretty neat, a different beer for each exit on the NJ Turnpike. Yes, I am a Jersey boy…Exit 9 what what!

EXIT 18 WHAT WHAT
try the exit 4. it's now available in a six pack. you won't regret it
you know, that exit 4 six pack is actually in my fridge as we speak!
I've enjoyed all of the Exit Series so far. Exit 16 is a pretty solid IPA; hoppy but not overly so. My favorite of the series so far is still Exit 11. – John
hmm i've only had 16 and 4. i saw exit 1 at the store, and i'll probably grab a bottle of that soon.
would you know if 11 can still be found? or is it already "discontinued"
I used to hate hoppy beers also, but have really gotten into them over the past year. I LOVE exit 16. A couple others you might like are Bell's Two Hearted Ale and Yard's Philadelphia Pale Ale. Delish.
Flying Fish Farmhouse Summer Ale is great, too!
