Two Hearted from Bells in Kalamazoo, MI! Best IPA I've had so far.
Oh goodness... Are we just talking IPAs or can we get into DIPAs? Alchemy Hour from Great Lakes is amazing. So is Hoptimum from Sierra Nevada. Surly Furious... Odell Myrcenary, Bell's Hopslam, Bell's Two Hearted, Smuttynose IPA.
Why only have one favorite? Its like having quintuplets and only liking one.

I'd have to say the Avery IPA, or the Maharaja when I can find it.
Tough to choose just one, but taking DIPAs out of the question... fresh Flower Power is tough to beat IMO.
Sadly, I discovered this past year that I am gluten intolerant. I just decided to stop in and give my vote to Flying Fish - Exit 16 a double IPA.
Dogfish 120 ipa. There is no way I would drink a six pack of this stuff
um.... Maybe if somebody else was buying.

Sierra Nevada "Torpedo". An extra IPA.
Boneyard, Double Mountain, Lagunitas, Breakside, Elysian.
Dogfish Head 90m IPA - I love this stuff and it has supplanted Sierra Nevada IPA as my favorite. It isnt a "volume consumption" beer and definitely skews toward the cooler months, but it is perfect for sanding off the edges of a rough day.
Might have something to do with the 9% ABV.......

Canadian guy here with a bit of an IPA fetish. While I could ramble on about what's good, great etc I recently got back from a trip to Vermont and had my mind BLOWN!!!!
If you ever get a chance to drink anything by Hill Farmstead do yourself that favour. Especially if it's the Edward or the Society and Solitude. Both of them made me want to jump over the bar and hug the bartender.

Sweetwater IPA...from the brewery by the same name, Atlanta
Bell's Two Hearted
No DIPAs? Still tough. In no order of preference, Bridgewater, Stone, Victory HopDevil, Hub (forgot the beer's name, had it on draft in Portland) DFH 60 min... that's just five. Imperial wise, Rogue IPA squared, Walking Man Homo Erectus, Three Floyds Dreadnaught, Victory Hop Wallop, Stone Ruination. I've always wanted to try Pliny the Elder/Younger from RR but here in Beer Hell, FL it's impossible to find.
+1, as far as IPAs go. But my new fave is Bittersweet Lenny's R.I.P.A.
Wildeman by Flying Dog is a recent favourite of mine
Year-around: Bell's Two Hearted
Seasonal: Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye

Its hard to tell my favorite IPA. We have gone to only drinking local beer and what I brew. We love the IPA that I brew, Its like the ninkasi IPA but not as bright. Love the Fire on the mountain IPA(local, only on tap in the wing joints) Deschutes Hop Henge, HUB(hopworks urban brewery) IPA is also good. The stone ruination is good, not great, but good. Tried the dogfish head and it was not what I was after, not hoppy enough. We seem to make really big IPA here in Portland. This is all I could think of with out the google to help me remember what I have had.
Laguintas Sucks (name of beer) is great, for those that like Bell's Hopslam, this is the value beer at $9.99 for a six pack as opposed to around $20 for Hopslam. Founders All Day IPA is pretty great too and at only 4.7% alcohol, it definitely lives up to its name.
