Port Brewing High Tide Fresh Hop IPA

Brewed by Port Brewing/Lost Abbey
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
San Marcos, California USA

Slight hazy golden with a white head. A little grass, citrus and a fresh straightforward aroma. Sweet flavour with a little lemon, softness and a pleasant freshness. Super well balanced! At first very bitter but it fades out quite quickly and doesn’t become dominating.

Bottle (bomber) from Systembolaget. Hazy golden, medium white head. Hoppy aroma with sweaty blue cheese, pine needles and citrus. Medum bodied with prickling carbonation. Dry and very bitter. Very refreshing.

Bottle with thanks to GorditoABD. Thanks Chris!! Pours orangey gold with a decent head. Aromas of simcoe greet and kiss the nose along with the other fruity flowery hops. Pine and fruit are the big flavors. The simcoe is what really makes this beer shine. Semi creamy on the palate and all around pure goodness.

Pours a cloudy gold with an aroma of piney hops. Flavors of a top tier ipa. Very fresh with fruity, piney hops with a nice bitter finish. An extremely drinkable ipa that is extremely refreshing. I want more of Port.

Pale hazy yellow with a big rocky white head that leaves small stripes of lazings on my shaker. Aroma is basically only hoppy with notes of peach, passion fruit, pear and pineapple. Flavour is basically the same with additional bitterness giving this beer a real punch as it finishes quite bitter. Mouthfeel is smooth. Overall a frightingly drinkable hop fix.

Delicious! I’m sampling this in mid-December and I can’t help wondering if I’m losing out on a bit of the fresh hop aroma by now. But still, oh my - the aroma wafting out of the glass is lovely. Grassy and spicy - notes of citrus rind and alcohol. A slightly hazy orange color with a foamy white head that dissipates quickly. Certainly the style of beer I love and gravitate to, and a well done one at that.

Pours a hazy gold with a nice thick head. Aromas of citrus and pine hops. Very crisp with incredible hop flavor with a hoppy bitter aftertaste that lingers foverever. Medium body, perfectly balanced. One of the best IPAs I’ve ever had the pleasure to try.

fresh from this year’s harvest, acc. to vendor was shipped from the states to DK as soon as it was finished. clear orange, thick smooth offwhite lacing head mild flowery hops in the aroma, not a hop head extreme beer. not that strong hop aroma. but what there is, is nice. hop aroma seems to be quite fruity and fresh. flavor is fresh flowery hops, clearly also some pine, very fresh / juicy flavor of orange and pine. good bitterness to balance. pretty tasty. alc well hidden, ends with nice bitterness, the middle is fresh juicy and hoppy, some malt balance. pretty nice IPA that i think is much less agressive than most double IPA’s etc. delicate.
