Oct 19, 2006 Draft, a beautiful orange/ amber color with a good head. Beautiful Northwest hops. A great beer from a great brewery, beer hits you at the end with HOPS and is not that what it is all about.

Dec 14, 2008 Absolute hoppy enjoyment.
Beautiful amber color with phenominal clarity and a nice head with good lacing. The malt profile is nutty and balances the hop bitterness well.
Buy it.

Dec 20, 2007 This tops SN Celebration ale which is one of my favorites. Affordable too boot. Fresh hops max the flavor. Dry as all hell in great SN tradition.

Dec 2, 2009 Presentation: It was poured from a brown 24 oz bottle into a pint glass. The label reads 12th release 2008.
Appearance: The head builds up tall, thick and firm from the slow pour. . It is light tan in color and has excellent retention. A nice small cap of foam hangs on until the last sip and as it slowly slides its way down the glass it makes lots of cool lacing that sticks to the glass. Under the head lies a beautiful deep amber colored body with just the slightest protein or chill haze.
Smell: The aroma has a piney resin like hop character with some citrus notes as well. Under that are some light bready/malty notes with just a hint of estery/yeasty red apple skin notes as well as a touch of raw grain.
Taste/Palate: Like the Southern Hemisphere Harvest, this Harvest has a good sturdy base of bready malt sweetness with a touch raw grain. Hop flavor is also quit firm and assertive. The hop character is that of tasty piney hops with some resiny and juicy lemony/grapefruit citrus notes. The bitterness from the hops is more than equal to the malt sweetness and lasts well into the finish. The palate has a nice solid medium feel with plenty of lively carbonation.
Notes: Another outstanding selection from Sierra Nevada with big bold hop flavor and nice supporting malt.
