It’s hunting season and we brought you back something from our hunt… our Hop Hunt, that is. And in our usual fashion we present it to you in beer form. We limited out with our bounty of El Dorado, Topaz, Nelson Sauvin & Azacca. This gives way to big juicy notes of pineapple & stone fruits and goes down as easy as blasting 16 bit ducks (even if the game was on an 8 bit system) from the skies with a bright orange zapper. Don’t let this one fly away or that dog will be laughing at you.

Yes, its that familiar time again, where one not just adds a beer to this Next Glass database, but where, I don't want to say a hero, but a person generates the content for the almighty Next Glass. Respect Next Glass! Here comes another old video game intellectual property label beer.

Pours a hazy dark yellow almost beige color into a 1969 Marquette jersey pint glass. Full 1" of white head on the top, tight bubbles. Looks the hazy ipa part. The aroma was more wooden malty than hoppy somehow. Are you sure on those Nelson hops? What is the deal with that lately?

Taste mirrored much of the aroma, there was seemingly a dearth of hop flavor. Bitterness, sure (although in a hazy that can be suspect at times). If you're here looking for dank like flavors, citrus, tropical, stone fruit etc. . . they seem to be in short supply. And that supply is mostly grapefruit rind. I'm just not finding this to be a big juicy ipa commensurate with the commercial tug job.
