I've got an IPA in secondary right now that should be ready to tap as soon as we have an empty keg to put it in, and I'm also thinking about what to call it. It's a fairly light west coast IPA that used pilsner malt with cascade and citra hops. Should be a good summer beer.

That sounds damn good actually.
And don't get me wrong, I agree with you, I just like sarcasm in general so putting something that says "insert hop pun here" on a label would be right up my alley.
