UPDATE! On March 13th, Head Hunter IPA beat Ithaca’s Flower Power to advance to the Final Four!. The final four and finals will be held next Saturday in Atlantic City! Good luck, Fat Head’s!
Fat Head’s Head Hunter IPA has advanced another round in the 2010 Brewing News National IPA Championship. India Pale Ales (IPAs) from all across the US have entered the competition, 128 in all. The competition is judged like basketball’s NCAA tournament with each beer being judged against one other beer in each round. Several Ohio beers survived the first round. BREW Kettle’s Red Eye PA and Fat Head’s Head Hunter survived the second round and Head Hunter has now made it into the fifth round, the “Elite 8.” Brackets can be found here.
Round 5 will be held on March 13, with the Final Four and championship rounds to be held on March 20 in Atlantic City. Best of luck to Matt Cole and Headhunter IPA! We’re rooting for you!
