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.

Ever so slightly hazy golden coloured body with a nice two centimetre tall off-white and creamy tan head that stays afloat nicely and leaves a subtle lace on the sides. Aroma of grass, hay, perfume, some resin and pineapple with a light alpha acid bitterness and some smooth sweetness noticeable in the nose. Light-bodied; Very crisp and easy-drinking biscuity malts show at first with a big white grape juice sweetness with some light bitterness and some subdued tropical notes, but this really is about the mild flavours, especially the white grape juice (cryo hops?). Aftertaste is very soft and easy-going with only a dash of flavours, dryness and crisp malts to take away from the white grape juice, with no real lasting bitterness here. Overall, nice enough to try and definitely 'new school', but that rids itself of traditional hop bitterness, which isn't here at all. I prefer others from this brewery, but this was good to try, especially on the East Coast! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Wegman's [grocery] in Alexandria, Virginia on 20-October-2021 for US$1,99 (part of a mixed six pack!), bbd of 08-09-21, and sampled at my house here in Washington on 18-May-2022.

Big can... gotta love the west coast. Pours a clear gold with a fluffy head and aromas of malt and a bit of resin. Flavor is like a washed out IPA... decent but just decent. IPA for the masses. Not too aggressive... not too assertive... not too hoppy... but it's wet and has alcohol, right?
