Wow this stuff is good! I've said this before about fresh Be Hoppy and Hopulence. For me Wormtown makes a trip to VT or Monson unnecessary. Their IPAs and DIPAs rival Surly and FFF as well. Dear WT please can Hopulence and Buddah too
Im glad I bought it yesterday. It was between that or the Grapefruit Slam from Stone. For 2 bucks less I went with Buddha's Juice only because they don't only use grapefruit peel but grapefruit juice.
Eh - big disappointment for me on draft last week. Off flavors all over the place with an unpleasant boozy aftertaste. Many better hoppy offerings around here IMO. Be Hoppy & Wormtown are serviceable on draft , but the bottles are meh & overpriced (cans of BH didn't win me over either).
I had the first batch from this year on draft about a month ago. I didn't pick up any off flavors. I thought it was well balanced with a crisp bitterness and good nose. I enjoyed it thoroughly would seek it out again. Haven't had the latest batch. I have drank a lot of Be Hoppy over the last couple years and found some batch inconsistencies. Never below par though. It's either been good or great. I hope the new digs will allow them to be more consistent.
It's alright, but nowhere as good as Be Hoppy or Hopulence. Definitely does not curb my desire to travel to VT or Treehouse
Good point on the new location. They make great IPA/DIPAs. When fresh and handled well, they are, dare I say world class. I got fresh cans of Be Hoppy, batch #1 from brewery at the end of summer 2013 and they were awesome. Following batches have been good to great, depending on if they have been refrigerated at the bottle shops. New digs will improve their quality and consistency big time!
