Cut through the haze to reveal the taste of American hops in Mass Rising, a double hoppy lager. We infuse this beer with increasing amounts of Mosaic, Simcoe, and Ekuanot hops during the brewing process to maximize flavor and challenge the expectation of what a lager can be.

330 ml. bottle shared with Deanso, kermis, kraddel & Beerlover_Ben. About 1 year old. Hazy orange with little white bubbles. Nose is mellow peach, apricot, mellow fruity with clear malts, faint mineral note, vaguely watery. Taste is mellow malts, lovely bready malts, juicy, pleasantly malt forward, good yeast profile, mango white bread malt end. Mellow, very low bitterness, pleasant white bread malt. Surprisingly good still, very neat work.

0,33l from bottle at Mels Diner. Orange quite hazy color, small white head. smells a bit old hoppy, resin, caramel, light parfumy. ok smell. full body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes of resin, light berry notes, oranges, light sweetness, lightly acidic, bit earthy. finishes lightly bitter with citric notes and light resiny notes. decent a but on the heavy side, but also probably not totally fresh.

This was poured into a pilsener glass.
The appearance was a glossy yellow color with a nice looking subtle carbonation rising to fill a one finger lasting head. It eventually dies off into a film of a head. Nice filmy/almost semi-thick foaminess in the rings looked nicely.
The aroma had some sweet grassy hops blending in with a little bit of spice smelling really nice.
The taste was moderately sweet and bitter blending the hops with a low crisp to sweet malt consistency. There’s a nice crisp bready/lager aftertaste leading into a nice semi-sticky sweet finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a nice sessionable feel. Carbonation feels low enough to allow a nice bitter to sweet feel on my tongue, nothing overly done, feels nice and crisp.
Overall, good Imperial pale lager. I’d have again and would be a nice one with food.

Pours a clear amber from a bottle, good lacing. Dank smelling tropical fruit, concentrated mango sauce with honey, a little savory element somehow. Very good beer.

355ml bottle @ Stadin Panimobaari. Mfg 01/09/15. Pours orange with a smooth head. Aroma of not so fresh grassy hops, malts, caramel, toffee, bready notes and earthiness. Taste is sweet, stuffy and malty with some aged grassy hoppiness. Finish is sweet, sticky and stuffy with loads of aged hops and grassy notes. Would like to try this one again from a fresh bottle.

Tap at the source. The nose is fresh, clean, bready malt, soft citrus, mellow orange and grass. The taste is crisp, bitter, clean, grassy, grapefruit, orange rind, light pepper, creaminess, straw and some alcohol warmth with a smooth finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Very nice hoppy boosty lager.
