Cooling out on the dock, jamming tunes and popping tops, waiting for da rod to bend. Gist of the grist is mellow at 4.20% ABV, laying down the base to showcase the blazin’ Amarillo hop hash sunset.
The star of the show here is the hops, specifically the hop hash! We kept the malt bill light to allow the hops to shine through.
We does this sucker with a boatload of Amarillo Hop Hash. Pungent with floral, tropical citrus fruit flavors and the hop hash gives it that one of a kind chewy, gooey, resiny mouthfeel. As the chaser, we are giving it a hefty dry hop to enhance the potent aromas. Ahtanum gives it orange and grapefruit tones, Crystal for a little kick of spiciness, and El Dorado bringing some pear and watermelon characteristics.

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Charlottesville, 3/3/16. Hazy amber, large foamy white head, good retention. Aroma of piney, citrus, lemony hops, pale malt. The taste is pineapple, grapefruit, lemon, pine, pale malt. Medium bodied, lingering bitterness, bright and juicy. Nice.

Hazy gold with a tall mostly white head. Light citrus hop aroma. The flavor is bitter resiny hops, some lemony citrus. Decent for session IPA.

2 month old bottle into a stange. A: 2 inch rolling head in my narrow kolsch glass. Mostly clear orange tinted gold pour with lively carbonation. Patchy lacing. S: Caramel malts in the bottle, tart orange in the glass. T: More pith and pine in flavor with grapefruit more than orange. Bitter but with enough fruit and sweet toast to balance. M: Light and clean finishing with some resin and coating carbonation. Great drinkability. O: Nice session ale. Aromatic, light, bitter, easy drinking. Widely available, well priced and usually quite fresh a go to for me.
