Underwhelming aroma. Flavor is redeeming. Stinging pine and resin hop bitterness. Finishes with some malt and alcohol. Good IPA.

Hazy deep orange, with a small head. This one is actually less of a punch in the face than I thought it would be. The aroma is pretty mild, and has a bit more malt balance than I was expecting. Hops definitely come through, but these are definitely a step back from the chinook / cascade varieties I’ve become used to. Too much balance, not enough punch. Good -- but drowns the hops.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy dark amber in color with a short frothy head. Good retention and watery lace. Aroma is fruity and medium sweet. Light green grassy notes and cereal malt as well. Light sweet flavor that turns oily bitter on the palate. Medium body, oily-creamy texture, soft carbonation, and a medium bitter finish.

Excellent puffy head on this. A particularly essential-oily and nettly aroma. Definitely the best hop showcase I have had in a ’fresh hop’ beer all year. It ha a good body to it, creamy and tight.

My favorite fresh hop beer. Hop far & away! The savory freshness stays from begginning to end. Great kickoff ipa for fall. Had this on tap @ the bye&bye for double mtn. killer green release party. Good times!

On tap at the Eastside Club Tavern – Olympia, WA
Amber in color, clear with a thin head. Tons of fresh hops in the aroma and flavor. Liked the light caramel flavoring and nice finish. This was a great fresh hopped beer.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Nose of caramel malts, fresh leafy hops, some dank herb, some tropical fruity notes underneath and light sweetness. Pours amber with a thin layer of bubbles and some decent sheets of lace. Leafy hop notes up front followed by medium sweet malt - mostly caramel, a touch of tea, more leafy hops, earthy and dank with a soft tropical note in the finish. Nice fresh bitterness lingers in the finish. Balanced and drinkable and moderately interesting.
