We're constantly brewing new IPAs looking for bold hop flavor. With this beer, our brewers thought it was so good that we decided to serve it straight from the tanks - unfiltered, unprocessed, and raw - to let all the fruit-forward hop flavors shine. The result is a hazy beer with modest bitterness and intense hop character. To some, making an unfiltered hop bomb may seem crazy, but to us, its a hazy little thing called IPA.

Good.... not great... but good. There are certianly others that I would rank higher, but I am not mad if this is what someone brings along, and I get why people like it. I think the deschutes freshly squeezed is a little bit more 'danky & sticky,' which I like, but this isn't a bad beer. Will definitely order it again, but will not go out of my way to get it, or be excited if I see it on a menu.

This is my everyday beer. Taste is good. Not too hazy, good smell. Price is par. No bad after taste.

The nose takes me to a mountain meadow, which I like. Standard hazy look, with a briefly dense head. Ok on the palate, with a nicely balanced finish.
