Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a firm and long bitter finish. Body is medium. Quite royally hopped and bitter, some sticky resinous sweetness. Quite enjoyable IIPA.

Chetco Thunder Rock IIPA
On tap at Saraveza’s 6th IIPA Fest, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out cloying candied sweetness and a touch of resinous hops. Flavour is way too sweet, with cloying malty sweetness and barely enough resinous hops. Too cloying and malty. Not too good.

Chetco Chinooker IPA
Pint poured from a growler from Growl Movement in Salem. $11 Pours a hazy darker orange with a great looking creamy and thick white head. Lots of hops in the aroma floral, spruce like and with a nice toffee malts backing. Taste the same as the aroma basically..balanced and in the PNW style . Mouth feel is nice and silky smooth with medium carbonation. Very nice IPA..i can only assume they have improved since the last rating.

Chetco Thunder Rock IPA
Good drinkability. There's a little bite so I can't say it's the smoothest ipa ever but I think on a hot afternoon that would actually make it better. Love the deep copper color and the pine taste mixed with some sort of citrus. Guessing grapefruit. All in all, a really good beer ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
