Commercial Description:
Hops Infusion exhibits deep malt characteristics- this beer has undeniable character and body. Glowing a deep amber color, Hops Infusion is brewed with seven types of hops. The result is unmistakable-- hop-heavenly flavor with earthy, spicy, sharp citrus notes. Hops Infusion has four times the dry-hopping as our already hoppy IPA.

Bottle. Clear amber, small dissapearing head. Hoppy aroma of grapefruit, orange-peels and grass. Dry, clean flavour of grapefruit amd grass with a resiny bitter aftertaste.

Good citrus type hop aroma at first with good malts coming in at the end. An orange type amber color with a good full light tan head that clings well. Very good hop bitterness and flavor combined with a good full malt flavor and body. This is much better than the earlier version of Hops Infusion. Dan has created a more balanced but still very flavorful IPA. The hop flavors are not harsh like the old recipe. I also like the fact that at 6.2% it is not as high as a lot of the IPA’s on the market but it still has a very robust flavor.

Poured great, nice head and deep amber color. I leaned in for a expecting to be bombarded with hops, but found little hops aroma coming off this one with the ’7 types of hops’. It’s definitely got a full malt flavor to it then a piney hops flavor. Very light citrus flavor but just for a second towards the end and then you’re left with a bitter hops after-taste. Not my kind of hops in this one.

Bottle, new label and recipe. Faint citrusy hop aroma, but equally malty. Pretty thin malt profile behind the dominating spicy and citrusy hop flavor. Finish has a hint of orange right before the dry, bitter, and earthy finish. Is there some Amarillo in this? Better than the original. This is a decent and hoppy beer, and I can see others digging this a little more than I. This recipe just does not meet my personal tastes for IPA.

Red, with a huge white head. Eexceptionally piney, resiny aroma. Big notes of pine and caramel, battling it out to the very end. Better balanced than I anticipated.

12 oz bottle: pours amber colored with whte fluffy head that lasts. Nice lacing. The aroma was full of pine, grapefruit, bit of spice, with sweet maltyness present. Lots of bitter flavors, mostly pine. medium body. A decent IPA not victory hop devil

I was really excited to find some weyerbacher in NC. they 4 different six-packs and picked this one. Problably the worst of the 4. This is totally pine hop aroma dominated. Flavor is more of the same and hugely bitter. The finish is everlasting bitterness. Wish it was more citrusy. upper-lower-middle class of IPAs.

I believe this is the "new recipe" bottle. Poured a clear copper color with a big fluffy off-white head. Nice hop foward aroma of pine, citrus, and earthy notes. Flavor starts with caramel and turns to piney hops at the middle that grows into a big and long bitterness. The body finishes thin.
