Our Unfiltered Sculpin IPA packs extra hops into every sip, enhancing the classic Sculpin notes of fresh apricot, peach, mango and lemon with a slight haze and less bitterness. Freshness is key to every beer, but especially true for this extra-hopped IPA - store cold and drink soon.

355ml bottle into shaker. Looks like cloudy orange juice with a frothy white head. Laces nicely. Some floaty bits. Nose is caramel and fruity earthy hops, very nice. Full-bodied and super smooth. Finish is earthy and tangy. Alcohol is not noticeable. Brilliant IPA.

Hazy amber brown color. Slightly sweet malty nose with a touch of grapefruit. The mouth is modestly sweet, heavy with some grapefruit notes. The hops feel a bit dead and the beer isn't that balanced. I find this too heavy to really enjoy and hops are a bit lifeless. Hard to finish the pint i ordered

Bottle from Boise Co-op. Medium golden and hazy, small foamy head. Aroma is sharp citrus with hints of hops. Taste brings more citrus, sharp bitter bite. About as expected, unfiltered process adds a bit more heft to the body.
