A hazy IPA, featuring flavors and aromas of pineapple, clementine and sweet melon.

Each year, Yakima Chief Hops collaborates with military veteran brewers, and partners with a different nonprofit organization that supports various aspects of the veteran community. Yakima Chief Hops is donating up to $3 per pound sold to HunterSeven Foundation, an organization that specializes in medical research and education specifically on the post 9/11 veteran cohort. The 5th annual blend is comprised of five different Pacific Northwest-grown varieties including HBC 586, Ekuanot ®, Idaho 7 ®, Chinook and Triumph brand hops. This blend provides a well-balanced mix of tropical, citrus, woody and sweet aromatic aromas.

Thnx to my work-mate (and former Able brewer) Jake for this 16oz can.

Pours a hazy, rich golden color. Has minimal carbo within, and a creamy, fine, snow-white layer of foam on top. Lacing is sticking well to the glass. Has an inviting, luscious mix of tropical fruit. Pineapple, mango and tangerine aromas are some of the notes hitting the nostrils. The body is medium, and the feel is fairly smooth overall.

Flavor has more fruit, like the smell, but it's not quite as sweet as the aroma suggests. Has some pineapple, grapefruit, melon, plus some notes of orange peel and lemon zest. It's mildly sweet, with some subtle bitterness in the dry finish. Solid, all in all. Prosit!
