Distilled Hop Oil IPA
We harness the complex flavors of just-picked hops with Hop Hunter IPA using an all-new method of steam distilling wet hops before they even leave the fields. This revolutionary technique captures and intensifies the natural flavors, creating a unique and intensely aromatic beer. Our custom process gathers pure hop oil which, when combined with traditional whole-cone hops in the brew kettle, makes for an incredible IPA experience.

On tap at Torpedo Room in Berkeley, California-USA. Clear gold/orange color, medium white cap. Nose: some residual yeast, piney soft, citric too. Mouth is prosecco-like frizzy carbo, mild complexity of malts, quite regular but tasty. More a Session despite its 6,0%. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Light yellow. One finger head. Holy crap. The aroma is insane. It’s too much. My eyes are watering. Pine bomb. Malt is very light. A little Bavarian essence
