In this experimental revolving hop series, we explore the ever evolving hop landscape and allow our brewers to hand select compelling and intriguing blends. This particular blend consists of a bouquet of Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and Idaho 7 hops. Hey, there’s nothing wrong with being a little [hop] crazy!

Had Hop Craze (Revolution #1) poured from pint can, bottom stamped "THEM HOPS MAKIN ME CRAZY" and (apparently) canned on "08/03/2022," birthday present from my little bro', into nonic pint.
Pours hazy gold with 2-finger off-white head, with great retention, leaving a nice splotchy coating of lace down the glass. Aromas of indistinct but definite fruit, berries and hop spice off the pour, as warms joined by aromas of lime, pineapple, and a little but increasing slightly-resinous dankness. On tasting, begins sweetly fruity over dry malt, then sweet citrus and pineapple, disrupted by a growing pine bitterness, before a complex, somewhat-sticky, but still clean, undeniably-malty, multiply-fruity, herbally-bitter finish, leaving, in the end, an impression of the bitter rind of a sweet citrus fruit.
An experiment stretching the bounds of the West Coast IPA, Hop Craze #1 is maltier and less attenuated than traditional, notably in the finish, yet is another interesting contemporary American IPA.
