Description
Four lifelong Oregonians got together on February 13, 2009 and decided that their knowledge of locale and understanding of craft beer could be an excellent starting point for a business. Later that year Hop Valley Brewing had its debut in Springfield, Oregon, but grew too large for its 15-barrel capacity and opened a new 60-barrel brewhouse and taproom in Eugene in 2013. In July 2016 MillerCoors acquired a majority stake of Hop Valley through its Tenth and Blake craft beer and import division. Hop Valley Brewing Company will operate as a separate business unit of Tenth and Blake.

Bottle from Brewers Haven. Orange amber with small ring of head. Flowery, fruity, bitter aroma. Taste dries out a bit, mild bitterness, Solid grain bill.

I bought this in a bomber in Billings, MT and consumed it at Canyon Lodge in Yellowstone Park. It comes out a splendid yellow-amber fluid and gives a strong, long lasting white head that is replenished by some active carbonation. I smell pine needles (quite appropriate), biscuit and grain. The taste is just short of a hop bomb. I detect pine, grass and grapefruit with a mighty fine, lingering bitterness. Tip of the hat to the brewer. Enjoyed in the time and the place.

Bottle. Black colour with ruby reflexes, beige head that disappears after a while, decent lacing. Aroma is vanilla, roasted. Light bitterness. Medium body, medium bitterness. Pleasant, but not very intensive for a robust porter. Not worth its price in Europe.

Bottle: Very deep amber coloured with a reddish sheen, small but lasting creamy off-white head; bitter-sweet toasty, caramelly and chocolatey nose, hops and mineralic spots in the second row; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied and pretty soft ; lingering bitter-sweet toasty and coffeeish finish with kind of artificial vanilla aromas. Not bad, too vanilla-flavoured...

Hazy and tan. Thin head. Has some herbal, earthy hops, though maybe a touch cheesy. Bitter, with a touch of cheese. There’s a touch of orange here, but not a whole lot of nuance. For the style, it’s made ok but lacks any sort of subtlety that might carry a whole bottle across the palate.

22 oz. bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out citrus and piney hops upfront, followed by resins and sweet caramel malt. Flavour is nicely constructed, with lots of piney and citrus hops upfront, and balanced with lightly sweet biscuity malt. Some booziness in there too, but it's quite pleasant. Very piney hoppy and boozy. Nice stuff. Very enjoyable.

2 pints on draft at Safeco. Very impressive beer here, and one of the better I’ve come across at the ballpark. So much Hop Valley at this stadium they might as well rename the park. Hazy golden orange pour with a rocky foam head. Loads of tangerine fruit in this one. Oranges. Juicy. Very tasty. Low bitterness. Solid brew for the game here. 2 pints down, and plenty more in the future I’m sure.

Dark brown. Thin head. The aroma is dark chocolate and woody hops. On the palate, it’s a bit thin, with a lot of bitterness. This comes from both dark malt, which lends a bit of sourness, with a fair bit of dark chocolate bitterness and a big pile of hops.
