Commercial Description:
From first wort hopping to dry hopping, this ale is all about the hops. We use Mt. Hood, Cluster, Columbus, and Chinook to create our hop bomb. Wonderful cirtrusy hop aroma, bitterly balanced and dangerously flavorful.

On tap at the brewery. I’ve been impressed with all the beers I’ve had so far, this was no exception. A very floral IPA, pine and citrus from the hops, a touch spicy. Excellent body and a crisp bitter dry finish.

On tap at Block-15 in Corvallis, OR--Poured a golden-amber body with a thin white head. Flowery, fruity, spicy nose. Bold, rich, bitter, floral mouthfeel. Low carbonation but with a big, piquant, bitter finish. Good shit!

Taster - Block 15 Brewery - Corvallis, OR
Aroma – Huge Hops aroma in this beer.
Appearance – Amber in color, Thin head and clear.
Flavor – The hosp took this beer over and gave the malt nothing. The beer was flavorful for a IPA. Strong hops for sure and the citrus came through nicely.
Palate – Nice Mouthfeel, good texture with a dry citrus finish.
Overall – This was a PAC NW IPA. This fit the bill take your tongue and smack it around this left nothing but bitter, citrus hops on the mind.
