I am one of those people who always enjoy the thrill of a hunt.  As it relates to craft beer, I had been searching for months at several liquors for Pit Boss Double IPA from New Jersey Beer Company (NJBC).

Although I tried it at a few beer festivals and on tap at certain craft beer bars, I was happy to see it sold in South Jersey in cans.  After finishing the beer, I was left with the impression that it should be enjoyed on tap only because I didn’t feel it was a fresh-tasting product.  I’ve tried several beers from NJBC since their inception into the NJ craft beer market and I am still convinced that Pit Boss is the best one from their portfolio.  There have been other high-quality beers from some of the top craft brewers in the country that I felt were much better on tap and Pit Boss happens to fall into that category.  I’m glad I tried it from a retail level; however, it should be bought and consumed when it arrives on the shelf.
