The inaugural beer of The Hop Concept brand, this IPA boasts aromas of citrus and dank, resinous pine. As the flavor opens, huge notes of stonefruit and dank resin give way to a malty backbone and drying hop bitterness on the finish.

A lightly hazed golden DIPA with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity caramel malt with resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, dank notes, pleasant. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity caramel malt with light resinous hops, dank citrus, pleasant.

Sample during the Orange You Glad to CA Wave of IPAs? tasting on 05/22/2021. Slightly hazy orange-gold color with a medium thick frothy white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Partial rings of lace. Herbal hops, citrus and malt aroma. Medium body with flavors of resiny hops, citrus and biscuit malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a resiny hop aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Clear amber brown with tiny white head. Lovely aroma of pine with toffee hints. Medium body, lovely carbonation. Rich start with toffee and fruity notes. The hops steadily build through the palate for a big bitter finish. Excellent.

Clear and golden pour, some white bubbles on the top. Fresh piney and lightly fruity nose, some resins, and a lot of grass. Dank. Tastes piney and super hop-forward, higher than average bitterness. Tastes dry, resiny, lots of hop oils there. Bitter and dry. Hop tooth satisfied.

lovely deep golden color and frothy white head. Big bright nose with tons of stonefruit and over ripe mangoes with big biscuit notes. Very dank with sticky sweet maltiness. Chewy, aggressive bitterness, intense, dank, semi-sweet and unapologetic on many level. Nothing subtle about this at all. Not for the faint hearted. After so many NE IPAs recently, I loved the difference.

Draught @ Brewco, Manhattan Beach CA. Cloudy golden orange with foamy whitish head, orange-mango aroma, adequate carbonation, bitter citrus-mango taste with alcohol overtones, thin body, long finish. The alcohol escapes quite a bit.
