Barhop Heathen
On tap at the brewery in Port Angeles. Reddish color with dense white foam. Fruity aroma. I think they use the same yeast for all beers, including the Pilsner. Kind of plastic phenolics. Low bitterness. Maybe a bit of saline. No caramel flavors that I want from a Scottish ale. Meh.

Barhop Winter Warmer
On tap at Barhop - Sequim, pours a dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma of fruit cake, Xmas spices, and bready malt. Flavour is very spicy, with lots of Xmas spices, English bready malt, boozy fruit cake, and toffee. Spice-heavy but it’s got a decent body. Pleasant.

Barhop Heathen
On tap at Barhop - Sequim, pours a hazy dark amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out toasted bready malt and a hint of caramel. Flavour is weird, with an odd fungal, earthy, vegetal note, and a bready base. This isn’t to style at all. Has a weird spiced character to it. Weak, watery and just off-style. No good.

Barhop NW Nights IPA
On tap at Barhop - Sequim, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, biscuity malt and a some bitter citrus zest. Flavour is pleasantly piney, with a nice piney hops, a touch of spiciness, and crisp biscuity malt. A little tepid but there’s nothing wrong with it. It’s OK.

Barhop Judge Porter
On tap at Barhop - Sequim, pours black with a reddish tinge and a small tan head. Aroma brings out toasted malt, bready malt and a hint dry cocoa. Flavour is smooth, with a light bready malt and a touch of cocoa. Watery and weak, but pleasant enough. Would like more body, even given that it’s a porter. Fine.

Barhop Pom Blueberry Gose
On tap at Barhop - Sequim, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out tart blueberry, plenty of salt, and lacto. Flavour is lacto-y and tart, with watery blueberries, tons of salt, and lacto. Not authentic and not all that well-brewed. It’s fine.

Barhop Bourbon-Infused Porter
Draught at Barhop Taproom, Port Angeles
Dark brown color, almost black, with small creamy head. Very light aroma; dry mouthfeel; some roasted malt flavor and some sourness. More Stout than Porter. At least it’s less offensive than the other beers from Barhop.
