Brewed only once each year to coincide with the Hop Harvest in Yakima Washington, High Tide IPA is made with 180 lbs of Fresh Hops per batch that are plucked from the vines and sent straight to our brewery. We skip the whole drying and processing stage which means the hops are ultra fresh and full of flavors we can’t normally get. Like grapes, Hops are only harvested one time each year and as such, we make what we can when we get them.

U. aasta vana, aga jätkuvalt täitsa mõnus, mõru ja humalane, kuiv, männine. Hea.

Super fresh grapefruit and touch of lemon zest. Pours golden with decent head and lacing. Bitter end. Good malt backbone. Tap at Confessional

Bottle from FlacoAlto, thanks! Orange blonde color. Melon and pineapple in the aroma. Initial malt and fruit (melon, citrus, pineapple) coincide well with a firm grassy and flowery hopbitterness. Melon in the aftertaste, with some oily hops. Very well balanced mix of fruit and hops. Very good!

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Redstone Liquors, Stoneham (this version says Simcoe and Amarillo hops). Appearance is murky, pale yellow with tons of white, pulpy floaties, light sparkle, finger-width, fizzy white head with fair retention and light, leggy lacing. Aroma is moderate herb, light pine and fruit; spicy. Taste is herbal, lightly fruity, and a spicy bitterness (like rye). Palate is light bodied with smooth, thin texture, average carbonation with the aforementioned spicy bitterness, and finish as taste. Overall, fruitiness not coming through as strongly as the herbal, spicy qualities, which would have made this even better, but still good.

Tip Tap House, Boston tap: pours clear gold. Aroma is pine and citrus. Taste is bitter pine and citrus, with some candy. Not really my scene no more. Fine though.

Nice IPA, now brewed with Simcoe and Amarillo (not Centennial). Lots of dank and pine notes on top of mild hints of peach and grapefruit, underlined by a grassy, grain-and-biscuit tinged malt base. Finishes with a strong, clingy bitterness, resinous and stubborn, black pepper and pine cones mixing with toast, caramel, and black pepper. Pours a mostly clear gold with a sizable white head and moderate lacing. Peach, lemon, pine, and weed in the aroma. Oily, well-carbonated feel rocks. Good--if tame--fresh hop IPA, but drinkable as hell.

Hazy golden color. frothy white head. very heady nose with some citrus and pine notes, balanced, aggressively hoppy. Fairly dry. Good stuff
