Commercial Description:
The hoppy trails is a fun hoppy red ale for lack of a better description. In reality it is more like an american IPA but it is so floral that hoppy red seems more appropriate. Our assistant brewer created this beer as a farewell to stewarts before he left. It is unique in that we dry hopped the heck out of it in the fermenter for the first time. Usually we will dry hop in cask or keg to create something different with a beer but this turned out great.

On Tap @ the Brewpub 6/23- New special brew they had just put on tap: Don’t know why they bothered as it wasn’t much better than anything else I had there. Had a decent hop flavor up front, but nothing excessive considering the Bartender was telling people it was almost like an IIPA. Did have a somewhat floral aroma, had a bit of a grassy taste to it. Drinkable, but not much more & certainly not worth going out of the way for. Short finish, kind of medicinal.
