Update/Edit:
New batch is out, and I'm not liking this as much. Pours with a small white head, recedes in a second. Looks almost flat. Taste wise, while the hop flavors are there, if just a bit muddled, what is really noticeable for me is how sweet this is now. Like hard candy like sweetness, and lingering bitterness. Feel is syrupy, and thick. Certainly seems less carbonated, and the great dry finish is all but gone.

Possibly the first time I have noticed this much variation from batch to batch from Holler. Maybe just off this once, or maybe a preview of things to come with the new ownership?



Original Review-------

A: Pours with a good amount of haze, a vibrant orange color. A two finger white head forms with excellent retention, and rings of lace left behind.
S: Peach/stone fruit like, and melon in the nose. A big blast of hoppy fruitiness. Light malty baked bread is noticeable, and works for a great balance.
T: Hop flavor up front goes from peach, stone fruit, and melon. After this warms a bit, more citrus and piney/resin like flavors come out. A light malty/grainy bread character for balance. Then a substantial dry bitterness lingering, which helps bring it all together.
M/O: A medium body with moderate carbonation. There is certainly some sweetness from the fruity like hops, but finishes beautifully dry. An IPA that I really enjoy. I can come back to this a lot.

That perfect mix of new hop flavors and old school piney citrus and bitterness flavors. Well balanced with a ton of hop characteristics going on. Like everything from Holler, well done.
