Tropical Little Thing Hazy IPA

Plunge. Bustin’ to bubble; browning lemon colored broth of shadowy opacity. Cotton-headed with a blond tinge. Nearly laceless, just afterthoughts sliding slowly over an oily cloth-print. Here a blob there a blob. Orange, lemon, grapefruit, tangerine oils suspended nebulous. Orange-carrot bread, madeleines, green pineapple, jasmine, honeysuckle. Heavenly clouds evoking scented memories amidst the novel eddies of uncharted aggregates. Creamy, oiled mouthfeel drops heavy through the dream to grapefruit, sassafras, white pepper, sage, lemon-lime pith and zest, with a vaporous orange oil swallowed quickly in a wash of coconut and brown bread finish. Salivating and dropping a few degrees in the process.

Hop Hunter Ipa

Rich orange blossom honey aromas tinged with ruby grapefruit marmalade. All that on toast soaked in olive oil. Pretty good start! Johnny Cash's spaghetti western breakfast. Bubble bath head, hoppy minerally, lemon zesty with a slight butterscotch and a warm wooden afterglow that finishes dry. My baby smells cat pee on the nose. Like being hunted by a big golden Mountain Lion. Everyone benefits from a balanced breakfast!! #SierraNevada #HopHunter #IPA — 10 years ago

Ruthless Rye India Pale Ale

Cloudy reddish-amber pops cappuccino foam fleecily. Slippery lacing coats and rends to mustachios. Cracked pepper nose shows rye bread, malty bits and plantain. Pepper and rye conspire for dominance on the palate, aggressive posturing that leads to diplomacy amidst cigars. Notes of roasted pecan and burnt sugar. Cinnamon bark, clove and allspice all spectate, but rarely enter the fray. Lemon pepper emerges victorious.

Celebration Fresh Hop IPA

Must admit to an affinity for this seasonal! Such a fresh and clean nose of malt and pine-y hops, lemon, lime and orange peels, candied ginger, and coriander. Vibrant mouthfeel, accentuated by citrus action, cola, savory, coffee oil, buckwheat bring the bitter, and the whole never deviates from ‘beer’ balance because the fresh hop refuses to overwhelm. . #beer #biere #birra #bier #sierranevada #sierranevadabrewing #sierranevadacelebration #celebrationipa #ipa #freshhopipa #chicoca #2019beer #winterbeer — 5 years ago

Hop Bullet Double IPA

Rich antique golden body, with expressive chiffon ‘do; zig-zag serpent lacing. Candied lemon peel, pineapple purée, orange pith, sweet tobacco touches, sapodilla custard nose. Peppercorns and cloves in grapefruit skin, brown sugar crystals on top of cut pink grapefruit, lemon pith, rye kernels, caraway, allspice, bitter pecan, honey on burnt toast. Nice beer in that is shouts beer grains while oozing citrus, and flexing some abv muscle!

Celebration Fresh Hop Ale

Fast-moving fizz-fuzz that drops like a curtain to reveal a Dubuffet-esque remnant. Caramel and ginger, maple wood, golden raisin, cinnamon bread and baked pear nose. Raspy cedar, pointed nettle, pecan shell and walnut. Toasted wheat germ, orange bitters. The aforementioned slow-cooked into a potent amalgam. Winter wood trolls with tropical bounties stuffed into squirrel holes. Go nuts! #sierranevada #ipa #freshhops #celebrationipa — 9 years ago
