From the sharp aromatics of citrusy pine that permeates your nostrils to the hefty malt backbone, Hop-O-Matic will slice and dice its way through your palate! But wait, there’s more! This refreshing India Pale Ale highlights the avid appreciation we have of the finer, bold nuances of our little green friends by imparting a delightfully playful nose and even livelier mouthfeel.

A herbaceously spicy, pungent, and dank brew. This fragrant beer imparts an initial blast of bitterness that gives way to sweet, toasty malts and a zesty citrus profile, then takes it up ten notches with a complex mélange of hops that won’t go down without a fight. What can we say? We’re proud of this one.

Bottle thanks to fata2683: Poured a burnt copper orange with a two finger tan color head. Aroma is fresh juicy citrus hops. Taste is similar with very citrus grapefruit juice, hops, and mellowed in the finish a bit.

Growler. Pours with a clear orange hued body with a small white head. Aromas are of pine, fresh baked bread, tangerine, tropical fruit, low yeast and slight tannic extracted grain astringency. Flavors are bready, nutty, toasted malt and some alcohol. Low bitterness, tropical fruit hop character, dry with medium carbonation.
