Red Hook ESB is a specific beer. India Pale Ale is a style of beer,
many brewers make it. And naturally, each one is slightly different
from the others. If you've decided that an IPA is at least close to
what you like, then I suggest two things:

Try IPAs from many different brewers. See if a beer store near you
will let you make "mix-packs". You can then get one bottle from each
brewer to see which you prefer. Without knowing where you are, it's
hard to make specific recommendations.

Try other beers in the ale lines. One of my favorites is the Golden
Ale.
