Introducing our fourth year-round beer available in six-packs and on draught! Leota Mae joins the Bale Breaker lineup with a fresh take on a heavily hopped West Coast IPA. With late additions of Ekuanot™ and Mosaic®, this beer veers into dank, tropical territory, highlighting the aromatic power of these two Yakima-bred varietals.

Our great-grandparents planted hops in the Yakima Valley in 1932. The matriarch of our family, Leota Mae, worked sunrise to sunset cultivating the land we still farm today. This beer pays tribute to our family’s legacy and the woman who started it all. Cheers, Leota Mae, here's your IPA.

Straightforward IPA, smooth and light hop. Not bad.

Can - Weedy and grassy. Clear gold with a decent white head. Light weedy notes and some citrus pith. Not as good as the nose, but still quite good.

Can, thanks Andrew! Pours crystal clear golden, medium creamy white head, dissipates fairly slowly, good lacing. Aroma is leafy, pine, grapefruit, hint of passion fruit. Flavor is light plus sweet, light bitter. Medium body. Difficult to place this as a wet hop.

12 oz can from a case bought at work. Aroma is citrus powder drink, orange creamsicle, passionfruit. Pours hazy deep gold with an off-white head with decent retention and some lace. Taste has average to maybe slightly above average bitterness, light malt sweetness with juicy hop flavor. Not bad. I would like to compare it side by side with Topcutter.
