Fruit-forward hops take this IPA to the tropics.
Beer Camp is the ultimate brewing experience. We invite beer fans into our brewery nearly every week to design their own beer and then we bring it to life. Each spring, we’ll feature one of our favorite collaborations from the previous year. This year’s selection features intensely aromatic hop varietals rich with the flavors of the tropics. We use Citra, Mosaic and El Dorado hops to create bright fruit-forward flavors of mango, papaya and bitter orange.

Poured from bottle dated 1/4/16 Light golden color with a thin white head. Aromas of tropical fruit and caramel. Taste is caramel lingering fruit and slight lingering bitterness. Was probably better fresh but that is the drawback to this beer camp crap!!!!

On tap at Darby’s Gastown. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Aroma is non-intesive with tropical fruits notes. Taste is piney and tropical hoppy bitterness. Piney bitterness aftertaste. Quite simple beer surprisingly, taking into account other Sierra Nevada IPAs.
