Elevation 4393 is von Trapp’s take on Wormtown’s Be Hoppy IPA. This Left Coast beer is getting a little bit of Austria and a whole heap of Vermont. We use natural Vermont spring water from our property in Stowe, Vermont, near Mt. Mansfield - 4393' in elevation. Steeped in the Austrian brewing tradition, we are using a lager yeast and pilsner malt to put our spin on this awesome brew from our friends at Wormtown. This beer features Citra and Cascade hops to bring a delightful hoppy smile to your face Harvey Ball would be proud of…
Enjoy at any elevation!
This collaboration was conceived at a chance meeting of master brewers up in the Green Mountains. As is often the case, brewers talking shop can be a beautiful thing, and the result of that meeting is inside this can!

Reviewed from notes.
Can to lager glass.
Appearance: copper color with a sly transparency about near the sides of the glass with a three and a half fingers of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy and piney hops up front with a malty backbone
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a sweet to bittersweet well ratio-ed hops to malts quality; brisk finish of some citrusy to piney hop tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, even-keeled smoothness balancing some hop bitterness trying to scrape the tongue but those malts do some good blocking there
Overall: nicely done IPL worth coming back to.

Citrus and booze. A bit of an off aroma here that I can't place. Very boozy. Golden pour with ok head. Caramel. Tap.

Can from a Lazy Dog. Lightly hazy faint gold in color with a good sized frothy white head that slowly recedes leaving lots of sticky lace on the glass. Resinous pine and light citrus aroma and flavor against a light bready malt base. Sharp bitterness. Not too shabby, I wish I'd tried the two side by side though.
