Hidden Hop Yard: Vol. 1
Manor Hill Brewing

Thanks Nate. Reviewed from notes. This was poured into a becher pint glass. The appearance was a semi-clear golden copper color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that slowly dissipated to leave light sliding stringy lace. The aroma had some sweet citrus pulp (lemon/orange/mango/grapefruit sort of thing) with a light grainy sweet to light woody character underneath. The flavor brought all of the previously mentioned aromas together to fill the aftertaste in the same sort of way. Delicate citrusy pulp-like finish. The palate was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt fine. Overall, pretty nice IPA but then again the last Manor Hill beer I had was really legit too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From a crowler. I might just go with the standard IPA over this.

Poured on tap at Pizza Paradiso Dupont into a Becker.

Muddy and apricot orange body, fairly cloudy with little noticeable carbonation. Creamy one finger head presented, frothy rich ring lacing while drinking.

Nice tea hop and soft tropical aromas. Hints at cookie buiscit malt quality and light sweetness. Slightly creamy almost vanilla sensing too.

Juiced slightly fruity palate which bounces to peach and citrus orange. Soft honeyed malt flavors in the mid palate, and a nice almost creamed texture. Good lingering lasting hop aroma with lots of soft and almost bitter taffy like flavors.

Real nice IPa, that manages a bit of distinct character.

 

This one dropped off very quickly. Caramel malt coming through more, not very good.
