Harvest season is upon us! This Fresh Hop IPA features Chinook and Cascade from our friends at North Country Hops. With six pounds per barrel of fresh wet cones, this sticky and resinous West Coast IPA is sure to bring the heat. Don’t hoard these cans as this beer-style is meant to be consumed as fresh as possible! Happy Harvesting!

Went to Windmill Farms specifically for Dino Park, a collab between Toppling Goliath and North Park. Unfortunately, it wasn’t there so instead I bought 12 singles and a 6-pack of Aurora Hoppyalis. Abnormal’s website called it “Harvest season is upon us! This Fresh Hop IPA features Chinook and Cascade from our friends at North Country Hops.

Poured a light amber clear color with 2-to-3 fingers of frothy off-white head. Could see fast-moving bubbles coming up from the bottom and middle of the glass. Excellent uneven foamy lacing. Excellent retention. (Sight - 4.50)
Really liked the nose. Got big dank resin, pine, skunky weed, wet grass, caramel, onion, garlic, black pepper, herbal and lime. Out of the seven mentioned hops, Simcoe, Cascade and Columbus stood out. Just as good out of the can. (Smell - 4.25)
Tasted dank resin, skunky weed, pine, caramel, herbal, wet grass, black pepper, aspirin, onion, garlic and lime. Out of the seven mentioned hops, Cascade, Columbus and Simcoe stood out. (Taste - 4.25)
Medium body. Oily texture. Average carbonation. Long, dank finish. (Feel - 4.75)
Just a terrific West Coast Double IPA. Damn. (Overall - 4.50)
