In what has turned into an annual tradition, we have again partnered with the great people at Growing Veterans Farm in Lynden, WA to bring you a fresh hop IPA. This year we joined Growing Veterans in planting, handpicking, and brewing a super fresh, locally sourced, organic IPA. This hop heavy IPA shows restraint in an unexpected, yet thoroughly satisfying way. It is both resinous, yet quaff-able, fruity, yet balanced. Much of this is derived from the combination of all the fresh C hops Growing Veterans provided, although the sneaky element in this beer is an experimental hop used for dry hopping. 5% of this beer's sales will be donated to back to Growing Veterans Farm.

On tap at Aslan, pours an opaque cloudy peachy orange with a small white head. Aroma is pretty juicy and dank, with pithy stone fruits, piney hops, and dank pot-like hops. Flavour is quite bitter, with pithy stone fruits, bitter dank hops, and crisp biscuity malt. Juicy, but this is cut down by the sharp bitterness on the finish. Solid.
