In the spirit of tenacity and camaraderie, Mettle was first created to highlight the milestone of our inaugural year as a brewery. With the intense dry-hop duo of Amarillo and Citra, this medium-bodied Double IPA beckons with aromatics of pineapple, mango, orange, and a hoppy dankness. A fusion of orange, melon, light pineapple, and a subtle pithiness round out the palate with a smooth, pillowy mouthfeel. We continue to brew Mettle in recognition of our devoted following of hopheads that have supported us from the very beginning.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: burnt orange haziness with a two finger white foamy head which slid off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: peaches, necatarines, citrusy hoppy tones, sweet grassy hop spice, clean piney hop undertones, super clean malts
Flavor: fully bittersweet combination of those prior noted aromas; finishes citrusy bright and some piney hop tones
Texture: medium bodied, good sipper, clean and so smooth along the tongue
Overall: a wonderful NEIPA I would love to have again.

A lot of tropical fruit here, big pineapple, a little sweat sock (cuz I always smell that in the tropical hops). Juicy and hazy. Some actual resinous bitterness here is a bit of a surprise.

Can from BiervanEijk, Steenwijk. Nice tropical fruit aroma with orange, mango, a touch of grapefruit, pale malt and light pine. Moderate bitter, slightly sweetish. Balanced, tropical, very good.

Can. An unclear orange colored beer with a white head. Orange, grapefruit, pine cones and some pale malts in the aroma. Some gooseberry and green grape. It's full bodied and lightly warming, softly carbonated and semi dry, with a very gentle bitterness. Grapefruit, orange, pine cones, tropical fryityness and hints of pale malts and alcohol in the flavor. Lasting finish. Sure a nice one. 241019
