Kettle Series. When hopportunity knocks, answer it. This ale is Caldera’s rendition of answering the Pacific Northwest call for a @*! pile of Centennial hops with a big beer to back it up. Don’t get left out in the cold, open up and fill the void within you . . .

355ml can. Pours a slightly hazy orange with a medium, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves curtains of lace. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, bread, apricot and grapefruit. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, orange peel, grapefruit, apricot, peach and pine resin with a dry, bitter hop finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Ok.

Caldera hopportunity knocks On tap at Imazato with a burger. The aroma is big citrus while the taste is malty biscuit and bitter citrus/pine. A solid IPA but not all that special. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
