This year’s fresh hop offering is brewed with Simcoe for bittering and dry additions and hop bursted with 50 lbs of fresh, wet Chinook hops. Picked from our specialty boutique hop farmer in Northern California and used 24 hours later. A flavor reminiscent of fresh squeezed orange juice dominates the palate, but is supported nicely with a robust British pale malt for a sweeter, softer finish. To say that this beer is saturated with hops would be an understatement!

Served On-Tap, this one came and went pretty quick.
A — Pours a slightly hazy coppery hue into the pint glass. There is a cream colored rocky head that forms and leaves behind it some fairly consistent lacing.
S — Smell is bitter and lightly pungent, really leans towards the bitter and earthy side of the hop spectrum. I get a bit of pine cone, tree bark, forest floor, and a light grassy component.
T — Taste is much like the nose, though not quite as bitter. It still brings strong notes of earthy herbal hops, with notes of pine, terroir, slightly acrid.
M — Medium bodied with a lingering finish.
O — OK overall, I don't recall which hops were used here but not sure I would have this one again.
