Brewed only once a year with fresh hops hand-picked in Longmont, CO and Warrior hops straight off the vine from Yakima, WA.

Warrior is brewed using a unique style called “Wet Hopping,” which requires only hops that are no more than a day from the vine. “Wet Hopping” imparts only a mild aroma, but an exceptionally fresh unfiltered hop flavor.

0.65l bottle. This is a cloudy copper-orange colored one, tons of floaters and particles and a small heavy lacing beige head. Smells of pine, caramel, fruity ripe fruits and just plain old really nice. It has a almost cloudy and creamy mouthfeel with an average carbonation level. Not as fresh as I had hoped for. This has clearly sitting on the shelf for a while, but still it's quite tasty. Caramel and some near pungent-metallic hops, pinewood and citrus. Wish I could have tried this a bit fresher, but all in all a good IPA. 11.08.2012

Very light haze on this amber beer. Short lived off white head. Light palate. Has a carbonated nip before turning softer. Dry. Minerally grapefruit, not too bitter. A little aniseed. Finishes dry. Not bad at all but no wow factor.

Bottle (from BierZwerg.de). Amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is sweet malts, rather floral and fruity hops along with some honeyish sweetness. Flavour is quite similar with a quite strong bitter finish.
