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.

Pours clear orange with big off white head. Sweet grapefruit and orange aromas. Flavor is lots of bitter hops and slight malt sweetness. Medium body with average carbonation. Had a bitter aftertaste that was kind of weird. I was expecting more. I’ll have to revisit this one later.

Amber with a moderate head. Hops and a little spice aroma. A little sweet but nice and smooth. Another nice product from them.

Had an extreme aroma of hops to it. You can smell atleast four different hops in here. The cascade hops are a little bit overpowering in the flavor but it has a much sweeter flavor than I thought it would.

Bottle. Pours a dark orange color, with a sizeable cream head. Nice floral bouquet, with some nice lemon-lime citrus aroma. Palate is smooth, with light carbonation. Not too bitter, not too sweet flavor, a nice mixture of malt and nice bitter hops. Finish is really well balanced, the bitter doesn’t override, allowing the nice flowery notes to come through, along with some soda bread flavor. My bottle had a little bit of odd sour biscuit flavor that I think can be attributed to an old bottle. Overall, this is a quite solid brew.

From bottle : Pours a very clear copper color, sweet teaish, with a foamy finger of head, that dies down to a bubbly thin layer. Aroma is very strong piney hops, with a little malt backdrop. Taste is quite strong as well, very sharp hop flavor, not much malt. It is a little one sided in my opinion, needs better balance. Citrus hop finish. Has a very tart palate, and that lingers for awhile. A little below average i think.

12oz bottle served in a shaker glass. Pours amber with a thin head. Smells of delicate florals, pine, and caramel. More caramel malt flavor than I was expecting, balances nicely with some pine and citrus. Full body, very smooth, light lingering bitterness. A good gateway IPA for people who are intimidated by hops.
