On tap at Orenco Taphouse.
A mildly hazy light orange with a dense, off white head with good retention and lacing, this beer looks excellent. The nose is such a great blend of old school and new school. Catty, citrusy, mildly spruce like, mild pine, grapefruit and orange zest, this is pleasantly bitter and plenty fragrant. The palate opens bitter and pungent with the Amarillo citrus notes working nicely with a mild grape flavor from the Nelson. Bitter, oily, mildly resiny with nice citrus pith and zest notes. Markedly different from the regular Sticky Hands. Minimal malt character, softly carbonated with alcohol well hidden.

This goes toe to toe with Alpine Nelson easily. Great Nelson/Amarillo hop presence. Best sticky hands variant I've had

For me, this was one of the better Sticky Hands I've had. The sweetness and tropical fruit is diabled down, and the great nelson and amarillo hop profile dominates and shines through beautifully. Will definitely be ordering this again when I see it on tap around town.
