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. Golden/orange color. White head. Aroma is of hops and some caramel malt. Well balanced, and very flavorful. Nice dry finish.

Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, blankboy, tupalev & jerc - courtesy of HogTownHarry. Golden-amber with a medium white head. Nose is very nice, with those juicy Warrior hops and a good dose of caramel malt. Flavour follows - big, balanced flavours, with a moderately bitter finish. Solid.

Bottle (650ml) shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow, tupalev & jerc -- courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a murky orange with an average size somewhat-lasting creamy off-white head. Nice aroma of caramel malt and Warrior hops (I love Warrior hops!) -- simple but nicely balanced. Flavour’s the same, nice balance of hops and malt and oh so easy to drink. Medium bodied. Very enjoyable, I really liked this.

This is better than the I2PA! Fabulous appearance and aroma left me unable to maintain my excitement. Finished this beer way to fast to truly savor.

Bottle (650ml). Shared with blankboy, GregClow and Hogtown Harry, courtesy of Harry. Dark orange, small white head. Great taste - so hoppy, so malty. Very dry. Very nice!

Bottle (650ml). Shared with blankboy, GregClow and tupalev, my bottle via SecretSanta 2006. Murky orange-gold, average beige rocky diminishing head. Taste and aroma are simple and very good - medium herbal/tea-like hops, lightly roasted malt backing, mild alcohol, medium-length finish. Light body, astringency, carbonation and aftertaste - just a solid, slightly uk-style session IPA - really enjoyed.

Soft white foam. hazy red orange. Hard sandy hop aroma with a hint of orange. Strong hard hop character. Orange and sawdust. Rough character. Perhaps warrior is not my favorite hop...

Clear amber body with a creamy tan head. Floral hops aroma with some light malt and caramel background. Malty flavor, caramel, some molassas and some floral and light citrus hops.
