Each fall, our brewhouse looks more like a greenhouse as thousands of pounds of wet hop cones arrive within hours of being picked by some of our favorite local hop growers. Acting quickly, we then load up these wet hops into what will become Harvest Ale – an impossibly aromatic and bright IPA bursting with fresh pine, melon and citrus notes. Our ode to the beauty that is the wet, American hop.

Bought a 4 pack of bottles. Drank from snifters.
Look: medium golden color with half a finger white head, light lacing
Smell: citrus hops with a hint of pine
Taste: bitter hops upfront overtaken by a mild tangerine aftertaste, hint of malt
Feel: medium bodied with light carbonation, very crisp & refreshing
Overall: great IPA by Founders. Would definitely have again.

On tap, Mothership Series #24.
Pretty good. It's got a nice balance of hop Carmel and honeydew melon. Not super tasty, bright, vibrant honey dew melon. The more earthy, not quite bursting with flavor melon flavor. Subdued, but in a way that works well for this beer. Glad I got to try it.

Pours amber with a 1.5" white head, which lasts. Moderate lacing.
Aroma is floral, citrus, pine.
Taste is orange, papaya, light grapefruit, pine.
Medium body, moderate carbonation. Dry, resinous finish.
This is another outstanding IPA from Founder's.
