Commercial Description:
Hops Infusion exhibits deep malt characteristics- this beer has undeniable character and body. Glowing a deep amber color, Hops Infusion is brewed with seven types of hops. The result is unmistakable-- hop-heavenly flavor with earthy, spicy, sharp citrus notes. Hops Infusion has four times the dry-hopping as our already hoppy IPA.

Sweet pine and citrus hit the nose. I’m from the southeast, U.S . These are the smells of home. We are the hot version of the northwest. I enjoy this more than some other highly ranked American hop beers. While huge hops arouse your senses, the malt comes across with class. Very even for such a big taste. I was skeptical. I am more than pleased.

On draft @ Redlight. Brown-orange color with a moderate thick white head. Sweeter malts and earthy hops on the aroma. Sharper citrus on the taste, nice finish. Decent overall.

12oz Bottle. Aroma cusps a catty, plant-like hop heavy run. A touch stale and grassy. Pours an orange-amber, slightly murky, with a tall crisp foamy off-white head. Flavor is dense, but scattered. Some lemon-cat Simcoe-like approach, a bit of onion skin and some harsh brash pine flavor. The hpps seem unbalanced here, fading into unabashed bitterness. There some cleanliness too it, but I’m not jiving on the flavor. The malt doesn’t hold up. Meh.

Hazy and thick, with not a lot of head as it came out of the bottle. "There’s so much hop oil in this beer that it doesn’t even look like beer," I thought to myself. But sadly, this prediction proved to be a disappointing falsehood. This beer really didn’t strike me as a all that hoppy...at least not in a way I could really enjoy. Aroma was dry and pine-y, but not really all that pungently hoppy. Flavor is also very dry, a bit pine-y, and very dryly bitter. Not much else going on here though. Not a lot of malt or other flavors. Mouthfeel is good, not too sticky. I’d weakly recommend this.

bottle thanks to daknole. murky amber pour with a small ring of thick froth. citrusy fresh hops on the nose. a little thick on the palate with a very sharp hop taste and a resiny bitter finish.

Pours an amber color with a small off-white head and some webs of lacing. Aroma is lightly malty with piney hops. Taste is about the same - pretty good but nothing memorable.
