Once we pick fresh hops, the clock starts ticking. Each year, we visit the Pacific Northwest to hand-select the best Cascade and Centennial hops, race the harvest home, and brew immediately to capture citrus, pine, and floral notes at their absolute peak — aromas and flavors for the perfect winter beer. It’s a magical time at the brewery — has been for 40 years now! — when our brewers huddle around the fermentation tanks, toasting the start of a special season with a holiday beer in hand. Wrapped in red, consider Celebration IPA your first present of the holidays.

Better late than never.
Real shame about Arsenal getting bounced from the FA Cup.

Foamy off white head on an amber coloured body. Resin, malt & berry aroma, Medium bodied, nicely carbonated with a sharp back. Malt, red berry, pine, resin & bitter hop tastes. Good one.

355ml can, finally getting around to this classic. Pours an almost clear dark amber, big beige head. Aroma of pine, very resinous, caramel, citrusy hops. Taste is the same very resinous and piney, orange and grapefruit, caramel, with a very long and very bitter finish. A bitterness which in some sips seemed almost a touch metallic? Decent but expected something a bit more...

Malty, toasty and crisp with loads of grassy hops, pine, resin, lingering bitterness, hints of caramel and toffee notes. Old skool, properly bitter and malty IPA.

Small taster shared with Ryan. Appearance: clear golden with a white head. Aroma: citrusy with a bit of pine. Taste: along the same lines, some caramel notes. Finishes with high hoppy bitterness. Overall: ok.

Amber, rocky beige head. Great citrus hop nose. Light sweet fore, good body. Citrus hop profile, good malt backbone. Big long citrus bitter finish, great lacing
