By the same token, many folks really like very hoppy IPAs. I am one such
person and have yet to find an IPA that is TOO hoppy. If ppl didn't like
them, they wouldn't sell and the genre would die. Thankfully, I see no such
trend.

Two monster hopped IPAs:

Pliney the Elder (CA)
Small Batch 471 (CO)

.....which, not coincidentally, just happen to be my two favorite beers.
