Let's take Nugget and double it. Well, it wasn't quite that easy, but it sure was a fun balancing act. To start, we boosted the Simcoe, and this complex hop's notes of apricot, peach rings and bright citrus are the star of the show. Azacca enters the picture to add hints of juicy orchard fruit, and Munich malt brings a bready sweetness. To strike a balancing note, Columbus joins Nugget hops, grounding this limited release with a layer of dank pine.

16 ounce can. Reddish amber color. Frothy, bone colored head. Clinging lace. Toasted malt aroma has herbal, piney notes. Big, bittersweet, toasted malt flavor rings of dank, resiny hops. Warming alcohol comes through in middle, but the intense hop flavors dominate from start to finish. A hop lovers dream!

This is wonderful. Bready, peach, piney. Pic from last night’s Troon pickup in Hopewell, NJ.

This is pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good. Tad malty, piney, and fruity. As it warms there’s notes of apricot and peach. Kind of dank too. Excellent beer.
