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.

Very nice brew. Smells kind of sweet for an IPA, no overwhelming hop aroma more like orange and brown sugar. Tastes much the same. Very smooth. Would drink again.

Dark amber, clear. Lots of rising bubbles. Small off-white head dissipates fast. Some bandaids in the aroma but not unpleasant. Floral hops, lots of petals, leaves, and grass blades but clean and not a muddled bouquet. Gentle mouthfeel, medium bodied. Smooth and clean flavors with nice sturdy backbone of malt to support the delectable hops. Bitterness is in the dandelion/bitter greens zone and is a nice hop profile. The roasted malt and the hop harmonize, finding many flavor notes in common. Harmonious, grounded, straightforward, and balanced brew.

Pours an amberish orange color with a big, foamy white head that leaves sheets of lacing behind. I can smell the hops as I pour into the glass. Citrus hops along with piney and earthy hops are most notable along with a touch of caramel malt. The flavor follows suit with the hops and citrus notes present along with the caramel malt in the background. Medium bodied with a slight syrupy feel to it. This has a nice sweet flavor with the botterness showing on the finish. Pretty good ipa, but not my favorite of the style.

Not so great especially compared to double simcoe. Can’t describe it but this one seems off somehow. Seems like a big hoppy mess and I tried two bottles and both were the same.

Pours crystal clear amber with a small light tan head. Smells of real sharp hops, some malt characters, and a little weed character too. The flavor is more on the bitter side, pretty hoppy, with a pretty rich malt resence as well. Still almost kind of acidic to go alnong with the bitterness. Wasnt feeling it too much. Needed more balance to get rid of that punishing bitterness. Not my favorite IPA.
