We remember our first sip of hoppy beer, do you?
Nearly spit that $#!^ out. Now we fantasize about this stuff. Thinking about those hop cones… bursting with juice… ripe as all hell… makes you look forward to that first RESIN all day long. Can’t wait.
RESIN slaps you with serious unfiltered dankness — sure it stings, but it feels so good at the same time. It’s hop candy up front, but drinks super clean for the size of the beer.
Key Ingredients Chinook and Centennial Hops are a little old school, with tons of resin and pine notes. RESIN uses a ton of different hops, for a massively complex hop bouquet.

12 oz slim can from a six pack bought at a grocery store in Oregon. Best Before 4/12/17, so we’ve got some time here. Aroma is lemon, grain, perfume, floral (honeysuckle?). Pours nearly perfectly clear new penny copper with a long-sustaining fluffy cream-colored head with great retention and lace. Taste starts briefly sweet before a savage bitterness takes hold and doesn’t let go minutes after the swallow. This is definitely an old school East Coast IPA trying to compete with old school West Coast IPAs. This recipe was obviously concocted before the New England Hazy IPA craze took hold, back when it was an IBU arms race to concoct the most bitter brew imaginable. Although I still like these super bitter IPAs, the new school of thought showcasing hop flavor and aromatics over bitterness is much more exciting to me.

Courtesy shared at LuppoloStation in Rome-Italy, can. Thanks guys. Clear golden pour, medium white head. Nose: weak amber malts, hops are tired. Mouth: decent amber IPA. A bit old but solid. Clean too

Can. A- Dank, grass, pine. A- Copper color, clear liquid, white head. T- Extreme bitterness, pine, subtle caramel, grass, dank. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, very bitter finish. O- I wanted to like this one but did not in the slightest, however, I really appreciated it. This is a huge beer. Very bitter while still maintaining flavor and keeping the alcohol very well hidden. Maybe my favorite part of this beer was the can. Hopheads will go nuts over this, me on the other hand, at least appreciates it for what it is.
