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.

I’m not good enough to rate this beer. Typical IPA/DPA. Big floral hop and spruce aromas. Very appealing pour, clear orange with a nice head that goes rocky and doesn’t fade. Very mild carbonation. lots of hops , yet refined. Finish is somewhat like terpentine. Grapefruit bitter rind lingering finish. Good example of this style.

bottle shared by thedm and hotstuff - Pours hazy orange with a thin head. The aroma is mostly citrus hops. The flavor is of course strongly hopped. It’s a pretty good IPA, though I’ve had better, such as the next one I’m going to rate.

Bottle. Pours a hazy amber color with a longlasting off-white head. Malty floral hoppy aroma. Sweet malty slightly bitter hoppy flavor with grapefruit hints. Fruity malty finish with a long bitter aftertaste.

Bottled at Akkurat, Stockholm. Clear amber, dense firm head. Evident grapefruit aroma. Dry with clean mouthfeel and medium body. Really hoppy, though neither the aroma or the bitterness is striking. A solid IPA, but it doesn’t break any new ground, or possess something that distinguishes it from other examples of the style.

Bottle I bought in TX! I took it to Oddeds to share with him as he had LA Judgement Day. We both liked this better! Nose of very hoppy pine with a bit of caramel; Slightly hazy copper with a medium, longlasting, glasslacing, straw colored head; Flavor was very hoppy but not super bitter. I liken it to Hopsicle!

Pours a dark copper...mild malty and floral almost candy-like malts...thin layering of resting foam...initial sip is good, nice hops but there is no finish , no backbone...a very simple and un-balanced IPA

Pour is a orange with a big foamy head. Aroma is a nice mix of citrus hops and a nice pine smell. Flavor is more of a malt than a hop but still kinda tasty. Not the best IPA as it dose not knock you off your seat but still pretty tasty.
