Sierra Nevada Hop Hunter IPA, brewed with farm distilled hop oil, Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, Chico, CA & Mills River, NC. 6.2% alc. by vol. 60 IBU.
Appearance: clear and bright golden, vibrant ivory head, leaving delicate lacing. Lovely stuff, looking great.
Aroma: hop oil-a-rific, flowery, citrusy, piney galore. Lemon and orange and lime. It's gorgeous. Love. It.
Taste: On the palate, a blast of bitterness. blam! Bright, lively, bursting with hops. Light bodied, long, lingering bittersweet hop finish. Ends decidedly dry. Hop bitterness never quite quits, lays long on the palate.
Another wonderful IPA from Sierra Nevada. Wonder what the label says…" Steam distilled hop oil, gathered right in the hop fields, gives a mighty boost to the floral and citrus notes of traditional whole cone hops for intense, unmatched hop aromatics." There's more on the back, but it's basically the same information, stated slightly differently, with more words.
