We love brewing with fresh hops and this year we're excited to be brewing this early harvest IPA using the brand new McKenzie hop developed by West Coast Hop Breeding. Exclusive to the Willamette Valley, this dank varietal brings jammy berry notes to the party alongside big tropical flavors and floral aromas. It's pert near the first fresh hop beer you'll enjoy this season while waiting for us to brew up a few more. Cheers!

Sampled from the tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear gold with a slight orange hue and a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has slightly earthy pine with grass and light citrus rind supporting. Flavor has citrus rind and grass with a hint of pine and sweet grains backing.

16 oz can from Homebrewstuff. Bright amber pour, small foamy head. Aroma brings savory, spicy hops. Taste is mellowed by the caramel malts, with a small bitter trailing edge.
