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.

Limited Edition 40th Hoppy Anniversary Ale

Just translucent, reddish amber with a slightly off- white top evoking puffy clouds and sticky tendril lacing of carnivorous plants eventually arabesque. Light caramel malt smells overlay the lemon and pine, thyme and clementine-grapefruit. The extra touch of sweet malt rounds the citrus on the palate, and the grain shines briefly adumbrating the pine return. Pith of lime and grapefruit with a ginger sprinkle sustain the finish for a refreshing aftertaste with a ghost of basil. .

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 — 4 years ago
