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.

BOTTLE 12 OZ, 6 month old. Hop-hazy golden small white head. Smells like ripe citrus, sweet stone fruit, some pine, malts and honey - all in balance. The taste is similar - quite balanced, neither too aggressive, not bland. Moderate and soft grassy-piney bitterness. Quite good.

Pici, nem túl tartós hab, borostyán szín. Illata citrusos, főleg grapefruit, de narancs és mandarin is érezhető, mellette némi citrushéj. Markáns citrusos, narancsos, mandarinos, déligyümölcsös ízvilág, markáns, közepes citrushéjas keserűvel. Közepesen testes és szénsavas. Kellemes, jól kiegyensúlyozott sör.

(Bottle) Pours hazy amber with tiny white head. Gentle pleasant aroma - floral, fruity and biscuit hints. Medium body, great carbonation. Nicely balanced taste of rich sweetish biscuity malt overlaid with fresh fruity notes and great hop flavours. The hop flavours are very distinct, but the bitterness is comparatively restrained, providing balance and a long finish. Great IPA.

Bottle at 100 piv. I get juniper, also it is somewhat sharp, grassy, resiny, zesty. Lots of hops flavour, moderate-high bitterness. Easy drinking, well attenuated. Good beer but lacks a bit of the "in your face" quality.

Kirkas kullankeltainen olut melko runsaalla pienikuplaisella ja tiiviillä vaahdolla. Tuoksu mangoinen ja hieman havuinen. Maku makean hedelmäinen ja jopa karamellinen alussa kääntyen sitten havuiseen, kuivemman ja katkeramman sitruksiseen, kuivempaan loppuliukuun. Keskitäyteläistä hieman jopa tuhdimpi suutuntuma. Aika raikas ja oikein toimiva IPA edelleen, vaikkei ihan tuoretta kaiketi enää olekaan.
