The elite eight Washington IPAs

Hoptoberfest continues at the Beveridge Place Pub. As we reported the other day (read it), this is more than a month-long festival of IPA, it is a competition of sorts to determine what will be the house IPA for 2012.

Patrons are invited to vote for their favorite Washington IPA in an elimination-style tournament. For 11 days patrons voted for any IPA regardless of whether it was on tap or not. Hundreds of ballots were cast. In the end, an impressive 33 different breweries received votes–a fact that speaks really well for the quality of the IPAs brewed here in Washington.

The list has now been narrowed down to the final eight competitors. Stop by the pub and vote for your favorite. You can fill out one ballot per day.

The elite eight, in no particular order:
