We love the piney, fruity flavors of Simcoe® hops. This is a classic pale ale, single-hopped and dry-hopped with Simcoe. We cold condition this beer and give it a restrained malt profile, so the hops really pop, like flora in spring. Our friends Patrick, Jason and Brad grow these luscious hops and we hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

Draught @ Albion. Slightly cloudy dark orange with small foamy off-white head, light grassy hops aroma, low carbonation, yeasty taste with moderately piney hops flavor, medium finish. Leaves much to imagination I’m afraid.

Clear gold. No head aroma is pineor ward, a little tropical fruit thin taste. Finish is thin, simcoe is tasty but not a lot going on. It’s a good thing I like this hope variety.

Bottle. Amber beer with a cream head. Nice grapefruit and pine aroma at first but disapates quickly.. Grapefruit and pine flavor with earthiness. Medium bodied. Grapefruit and pine linger with earthiness and a little grain.

Bottle. Better Beer Of The Month Club. Almost clear golden. Aroma of piney and fruity hops. Flavor has some dry-ish malt, slightly sweetish, with some piney hops and a bitter finish. Medium-bodied. Nice.
