I had never heard of Meantime Brewing before your post. After a little
Googling, I'm keen to try their IPA someday (not that it will ever be

: )
Since every member of my family except me has visited London, I will
have to put it down as one of my stops if I ever get the chance to
visit.
I think the meantimebrewing.com website design is very classy
looking. I was surprised to read that they are the ONLY UK brewer of
IPA (now I can't find where I read that). I can hardly believe that to
be true, considering that the IPA fueled the ships of the entire
British Empire at one time. Have British taste buds so abandoned an
appreciation for hop flavor?
An IPA is a beer that has literally been carried to India and back as
ballast in a ship. Possibly a tad expensive for all but the 1% club
these days.
In any event, beeradvocate.com gives it a respectable score:

Ratebeer liked it even better:

I also tripped across this site, which purports to help you find beers
by location near you (or other major U.S. cities, assuming you are in
the U.S.)

All is not lost in Nebraska, IPA-wise. If any of you is passing
through you owe it to yourself to find a Lucky Bucket IPA, brewed in
our own LaVista, Nebraska. It has become my summertime drink of
choice.
