Hop Project #34 was bottled third week of August. For this batch, we decided to feature a hop we have never used before, Sorachi Ace. We used Warrior hops at the beginning of the boil, and then the Sorachi Ace at 45 min, 5 min, and dry hopped in the fermenter.

12 ounce bottle courtesy of Butters. Thanks! Pours a hazy copper with a thin head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of lemony citrus hops, caramel, floral hops. The taste is very bitter hops... resiny, citrus but mostly just intensely bitter. Some toasty malts. Medium bodied.

This one is clear copper with a tall off-white head. Pine with some underlying citrus rind in the aroma. Well balanced -slightly on the bitter side with a bitter finsih. A nice one.

Bottled. A hazy dark golden beer with a thin lazing yellowish head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and flowery hops. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of flowery hops on a malty background, leading to a very bitter finish.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of Sean9689. Pours a hazy amber with a lacing off-white head. Sweet and exotic hop aroma. Medium body, fruity and somewhat dusty, quite dry with and astringent hoppiness leaving quite some bitterness. Again some lovely exotic touches from the great Sorachi Ace hops. 021110

Big thanks to jcwattsrugger for giving me a bottle of this. 12oz-er pours copper with impressive multi hued tan head. The aroma is full and yummy and fresh with flower pedals, perfumy earl grey tea, fir tree, fresh shrub clippings and spruce. Very cool aroma. The taste is loaded with off center IPA hops delivering yummy hop flavor and modest hop bitterness to my eager palate. I get flower pedals, spruce, some spicy hops, fresh cut wet grass tasting aromatics, a mild level of malts and caramel. Very yummy mix of non traditional IPA hops. Well done!
