This northwest IPA is bold and balanced, with a rich malty flavor and a strong hop presence. We use premium 2-Row, Crystal, Munich and Victory malts to create the perfect base for showcasing Yakima-grown Columbus hops. After one sip you’ll agree, this is one hoppy bitch of a beer.

Nice looking beer with a towering, fluffy head. Not as hoppy as the name would imply. Malt is more prevalent, nice dark golden body, malt on the aroma, very bready/biscuit. Taste is also predominantly malt, some slight hop bitterness at the tail end. Long dry finish.

Bottle from QFC, Seattle
Hazy golden color with medium sized compact head. The aroma is mildly hoppy. The mouthfeel is lean and dry; not much malt flavor, but decent hopping, a bit resiny and fruity; some toffee and liquorice in the final.
An easy one, midway between APA and IPA.

16 oz can...so its got that going for it already. Slight haze to the deep golden color with a huge dense pillowy head. Classic west coast hop aroma. Typical inviting IPA trademark. Flavor doesn’t quite keep up though.The malt character is a bit odd. Maybe its the Munich malts, like its trying to be biscuity. Has a stale papery flavor..and mostly just columbus bitterness. Just OK.

On tap at tk bar after a late night at work. Pours out amber small head. Nose is citrus hops and some sweet malt. Taste is as the nose with a pretty light hop you would think with the name hoppy bitch it would be a nice hopped up ipa. Lacking hops in my opinion.

Bomber from LetsPour.com. Pours amber with a slight, transient, off-white head. Aroma is earthy/citrus. Med+ body. Flavor is earthy, pungent, arguably spicy. It’s definitely dry and bitter. Arguably what a good ale should be. Tasty!!!

Draught. Orange colour, thick white head. Citrusy aroma. Flavour is not all that hoppy, more like a pale. Bodied light, Hop finish like an ipa.
