Fieldwork Brewing Co.

 

I'm always amazed how a really popular brewery like Fieldwork can have me, the guy who visits a couple times a year, writing the first review for a beer. Cool I guess. Pours a hazy yellow meets orange color with a 3/5" white head. So these Idaho 7 hops, I think I was only exposed to previously in the Rogue beers? Seems like a mixture of all the aromatic hop descriptors: pine, citrus, tropical fruit. . . it was discernable from the Simcoe though despite having similarities with it.

Taste was nice, bitterness was run of the mill for a hazy, hop flavors were definitely pushed by the Simcoe, for a double, it was easily drinkable nor a harsh 8.5%, well covered up by a good body that isn't flabby nor lightweight. Just another example of a really good beer from Fieldwork that probably gets lost in the shuffle of world class ipas. It drops some usual flavors like grapefruit and pine with a bit of conventional and under the radar hops. Good for the Idaho 7 exposure.
