Commercial Description:
Brewed only once a year with fresh hops hand-picked in Longmont, CO and Warrior hops straight off the vine from Yakima, WA.
Warrior is brewed using a unique style called “Wet Hopping,” which requires only hops that are no more than a day from the vine. “Wet Hopping” imparts only a mild aroma, but an exceptionally fresh unfiltered hop flavor.

22 oz Bottle-Memphis. Poured a viscous copper-amber with a shallow head. Nose had a citrus character with a faint hint of malt. Full bodied mouthfell with a slightly tart finish. This makes it incredibly easy to drink.

Pours a thick, cloudy orange color into the snifter with a big creamy white head. The scent was flowery, grapefruit and hops. A nice clean taste with big hops and slightly bitter finish with the warrior hops making themselves known. A very nice IPA.

Aroma of pineapple, lemon, orange and malt with some hints of caramel. Golden amber color with a foamy tan head. Flavor is grass, hay, hops, with some citrus and a bitter finish. Palate is lightly creamy to slighty watery with mild carbonation. Good IPA. Not overdone or overly intense.

bottle shared by thedm and hotstuff - Pours hazy orange with a thin head. The aroma is mostly citrus hops. The flavor is of course strongly hopped. It’s a pretty good IPA, though I’ve had better, such as the next one I’m going to rate.

cloudy orange, thin fine beige head, nice lace, nice floral hop aroma with sweet caramel malt and a touch of citrus, creamy body, dry caramel malt well balanced with lots of moderately bitter hop flavor from beginning to end leaving a nice bitter finish, as it warms the caramel malt picks up some sweetness and seperates from the bitterness rather than blending with it, a good drinking IPA with lots of character

Swamp-water bottle pour. Small white head, decent lacing. Lemony aroma with other citrus notes and a resin-hop background. Strong floral, resin hop flavor and an underlying sweet citrus profile. Good stuff. Thanks to thedm and hotstuff for sharing.

Bottle. Pours a hazy amber color with a longlasting off-white head. Malty floral hoppy aroma. Sweet malty slightly bitter hoppy flavor with grapefruit hints. Fruity malty finish with a long bitter aftertaste.

Love those Yakima hops! Good beer and nice finish. Bright orange color and epic proportions of hops and malts.
