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 pours a slightly hazy light orange amber with a small white head. traces of lacing. Aroma is hops more of the citrus and orange but a bit subdued. If not of the clue in the name I may not have guesed this to be an IPA. Flavors were a bit subtle as well. Medium to light feel and lively. More of everything would make this better I think. Thanks to Buck Dich for sharing

12 oz bottle. Pours a clear bright orange with a fizzy one finger sized head. Aroma of resiny hops over a caramel sweet malt base, rather fruity. Resiny and citric hop flavor dominates, but I’m getting alot of metallic flavors as well. Malt profile is rather muted. Medium bodied with fizzy forced carbonation. I’m surprised by how much I don’t like this. For the past few years this was one of my favorite IPA’s, but then they deceided to "re-formulate" the recipe to make it more balanced a few months ago. You make me sad Weyerbacher.

Pours a clear orange color with thin white head. Aroma is of grapefruit, orange, and hops but not very strong. Strong grapefruit taste at first that finishes with a decent hoppy flavor. Much better then I expected. An ok IPA.

thjis beer is pretty good. higher in alc. is always good. but I, for what ever reason, expected more from this beer. It was full of hops but -- it just missed the mark.

Hops Infusion Ale pours to a slightly hazy, deep amber to burnt orange color with a tall, rocky white head, and a good bit of carbonation. The nose on this beer is wonderful, with very intense aromas of grapefruit, orange peel, and zesty "fresh cut grass" aromas. The palate of this beer is firm, with a nice malty base of pale and caramel malts to stand up to the huge hop character in this beer. This sweet malt base is complemented with real "honeyed" like hop flavors of candied grapefruit, orange, and lemon peel. Hops Infusion ends with more of those candy hop flavors, then ends with a huge blast of mouth puckering zesty/citrus/spicy hop bitterness that zaps the taste buds, and zings on the tongue.

This beer pours a honey brown color, the essences of this beer is very floural, with tons of hoppy goodness throughout the nostriles, there is also some lemon and grass smells mixed in. As I airate this in the mouth the taste of this beer is typical for an IPA, not bad. The first flavor that comes to mind is honey, then it quickly follows with a blast of grapefruit. All in all a decent brew, recommended.
