16 oz can poured, picked up at Hop and Hound. Love the wide variety of Trap Door products showing up in my super local lately. In addition, can't go wrong with a Grains Of Wrath. Pours dense. Really thick apple orange haze, cream foam head. Tons of fruit on the nose. Orange fruit, apricot, citrus. Juicy body, a touch sweet, but extremely smooth for the imperial double digit bill. One of the thickest brews I've had. Hop sludge, but really enjoyable.

16 oz can poured, picked up from Hop and Hound. Really glad these cans started showing up in my super local. Quickly becoming a local brewery that I'm bragging about. Lots of good beers, and this one fits right in, with both their impressive lineup of beers, as well as the lineup of fresh hops that have popped up everywhere. A hazy, juicy golden orange pour. One of those brews that just explodes with hop aroma when you crack the can open. Quite a juicy IPA, centered by melon like hop character. Smooth and refreshing IPA. Delicious.

16 oz can poured, picked up at Hop and Hound during the couple hour window they were available. Not surprised. An a attractive can, and it sounds amazing. I've used juicy fruit gum as a descriptor in my ratings for years. Someone finally beat me to actually brewing one. Didn't expect it to be a Brut. Solid IPA here, and probably my favorite in the still new substyle. The aroma is incredible. Citrus aroma, and the juicy fruit was nailed. Full IPA flavor, and hardly dry for a Brut. Juicy fruit with a stinging hop bitterness. Extremely good beer here.

16 oz can poured, picked up at Hop and Hound. I keep missing Trap Door on my Vancouver area stops on my way to Portland, so I'm glad these cans recently showed up at my local. A juicy golden orange pour, thin fizz head that slowly fades. Tang is a fitting name, though not completely obvious, or hitting the nostalgic flavor of my childhood. I actually hoped it wouldn't. This is good the way it is. Orange fruit nose. Flavor is a dusty, orange fruit hop flavor. Low bitter, not sweet either. Refreshing IPA for sure, and lighter than the imperial bill suggests. Enjoyable juicy IPA here.

16 oz can poured, picked up at Hop and Hound. Welcome to the Seattle area shelves to these guys! Always love supporting a new WA Brewer. Hop and Hound has helped introduce me to dozens across the state, and now another added to that list. I love peach beers, so my eyes spotted this can from across the room. A slight misleading label though, as this beer is much more raspberry than peach if you ask me. It advertises to have both, but the can suggests maybe a 75-25 percent peach advantage, but it's the other way around in my opinion. Glowing red pour with active carb and a pinkish foam head that fizzes away. Candy appearance to this sour. Tart, jammy red raspberries on the aroma. Flavor really matches. If I didn't know better, I'd say this was an exclusive raspberry sour ale, which is awesome. Tastes amazing. I can pick out a touch of peach, but mostly because I know it's there. A nice and refreshing beer here, which doesn't get too tart. Really jammy like finish. I'd happily enjoy lots and lots of this sour. Nicely done brew here.

16 oz can poured, picked up at Hop and Hound. Glad to see Trap Door cans hit the shelves up here. I have no doubt they will be flying off them here in no time. Lighter in color, a lemonade light orange haze, thick cream foam head. Quite a bitter hazy here. The body is thick and juicy. Citrus pit flavor, but a strong and lingering hop bitterness. A little on the dank side. I'd say more creamy than most. Creamy, fruity finish, with a slight wheat tone. A good hazy here, interesting display of Citra hops. Is there too many Citra hops in this? Is that possible. Maybe. All things considered, this is still really good.

On tap at the 2017 HAF. Pours a clear golden color with a medium white head. A big floral tropical nose. Funky, big dank hops, sweet citrus. Toasted base. Lovely.
