Commercial Description:
These hops are fresh-picked and never dried. Right from the vine to the brew kettle, we have incorporated Nugget, Centennial, and Willamette hops for a unique blend and an extremely fresh flavor. Vienna Malt makes up the bulk of the grist bill which provides a clean, yet full-bodied balance to our very own hops.

On draught during the ABR ’08 in Minneapolis, MN. Pours a Semi-clear amber brew with a creamy off-white head that has some nice retention and spotty lacing. Aroma of sweet caramel and Vienna malts, a touch of toffee and very light grassy hops. Taste is medium bodied, lightly carbonated with flavors of caramel, toffee and a touch of citrus. Finish is when the hop presence kicks as it has a crisp aftertaste. Not an "in ’yer face," West Coast caliper IPA or APA style beer but a nice solid pale ale with fresh hops.

Had this right after Fresh Hop from T Hall. What a difference. The hop presence in this is almost none, and there were no hops on the nose. This was nothing but bland and tasteless. Im wondering how much hops was actually used, cause it couldnt have been much. Dissapointing

ABR ’08 - Pours a light tan. The nose was hops, hops, & more hops. Came across the palate medium carbonated and extremely hoppy. It had a strong lingering hop finish.
