Description
BridgePort produces a variety of international style ales, including IPA. BridgePort’s ales are naturally conditioned in the bottle, keg, or cask from which they are served - they’re never force carbonated. The natural conditioning creates ale that is smooth, naturally carbonated, and full of flavor.
Today, BridgePort Brewing Company is one of the top specialty brewers in the state of Oregon. As BridgePort Brewing grew in popularity, it also grew in its brewing capacity from its 600-barrel beginnings to over 100,000 barrels per year. Distribution has grown from Portland to 18 states, and the brewery’s emphasis on producing quality, innovative ales has provided it with an international following and numerous awards.

On tap at the Brewpub. Hazy golden with a white head. Nothing special with this one. Citrus, some hops and malt.

355 ml bottle into shaker. Full-on nose! Cheese, wood shavings, pineapple, lemon sherbet! Amazing! Looks cloudy orange with fluffy white head and many tiny bubbles. Laces well. Flat mouthfeel, oily texture. Finish is plastic, resin, grapefruit, dough. There’s a diminishing white wine grape note that becomes sweeter right at the end. I think 5 different hop varieties are playing tricks on me, great beer. Evolving taste is hard to pin down but I like it!

Medium orange with a tall pillowy head. Heavy malts over this bitter orange and citrus hopped DIPA. Some light floral notes. A bit sweet, fruity, and bitter. A slightly off-putting finish, however, makes this not one I’ll be coming back to very often. Still, decent enough.

Bottle from Malt & Vine. Pours gold with a slight white head. Aroma is sort of creamy citrus. Yeah, makes no sense, but it’s what came to mind. Med body. Flavor is quite citrus, even zesty, but there’s a balancing sweetness. Not a lot, but it’s there. Still it’s decently bitter - just not NW over the top. Not sure, no I’m sure, it’s pretty tasty, just rather different. Think I’m getting some light stone fruit. Fruity bitter finish. Someone either really knows their stuff, or got very lucky! Now I’m really liking it.

Bottle sample at a tasting at troubles’s place. Thanks kerenmk. Cloudy yellow. Aroma of kinda stale hops and a vegetal touch. Flavor has sweetish malt, a bit of marmalade, a bit of vegetables, stale citric hops, and a bitterish finish. Medium-bodied.
