A classic Northwest style IPA. Hop Diggidy has a smooth malt background and full round hop flavors. Dry hopping two separate times in the process insures an aromatic and lasting hop finish. Enjoy this very drinkable Northwest ale.

Bomber pours clear copper with thin off white head. I smell a quick pulse of grapefruit hops before a mixture of buttered bread, caramel, toasty malts and ginger bread cookies join the aromatic fun. The taste starts both malty and bitter. I get roasted malts, toffee, bread, a hint of caramel along with grapefruit hop and some pine hop bitterness. The hop bitterness grows as the taste progresses and it becomes a bit watery too. Toward the finish roasty and caramelized maltiness try and compete with the hops but come up short in the end. This is a fairly malty IPA with nice interest and lingering grapefruit hop bitterness into the after taste.

Bottle. Golden amber beer with a thin off-white head. Big tropical fruit aroma. Traopical fruit, pine flavor with lots of hops. Not overly bitter. Medium body. Slight astringency. Lingering hops, earth, and a bit of sweetness.

On tap at Hop Vine Pub, Seattle. Copper colour with thin white head. Very hoppy. Astringent, woody. Not much malt structure. Bit of woody vanilla and then big whop of hops on end. Uncultured and no depth. Astringent hop finish and fun though.

Orangey-amber colour. Woody, citric, piney hop nose. Clear, deep, woody, earthy bitterness meshes with slighty toasty breadcrusty malts. Finish is long, dry, woody. I am seldom disappointed with a PNW IPA, this one no exception.
