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.

Big bottle. Pours cloudy dark amber, yellow fizzy head. Aroma is apple, pear, more sweet fruit than citrus tones. Malt is apparent -- more so than some IPAs. Pretty well balanced overall -- nothing over the top, but quite drinkable. Maybe a bit watery. Not particularly oily. Decent but not stupendous.

I can’t say how much I wish this was available year round. Amazing fresh hop flavor. My name is Cam, and I’m addicted to hops.

22oz bottle-pours a foamy light tan head that laces and copper color. Aroma is balanced floral/pine-hops, medium malt. Taste is floral/pine hops with some bitterness, medium malt-caramel. OK carbonation.

Poured a very murky orangy brown with a cream slightly off white head that laced and left sediment down the sides of the shaker. Aroma is hoppy as expected with a lemony citrus nose and little else to smell. Flavor is bitter with grapefruit and a sweetness like honey. Bitter finish but balanced as well. A good beginner’s IPA.

Amber body with a thin off white head. Heavy hop aroma ( I love warrior hops), caramel, honey, with a light spiciness. Taste is a dusty hoppiness with an orange zest and grapefruit with some grape accents.

Color me one moody sombeach, and I happened to be in the mood for this. Rather simple and one sided, but I just dug the type of bitterness - at least tonight I did and feel I would enjoy again. Went well with a rainy night and 1955 Bergman classic.

Pours dark copper with a nice off-white head. The aroma is not all that great, but sports some floral hop scents. The palate is medium to thin and reveals a one-dimensional flavor of hop bitterness. It finishes dry--and uninspiring.
