LEAFER MADNESS IMPERIAL PALE ALE HOP HARVEST EDITION

16 Ounce Draft, 9% ABV

Beer Valley Brewing Co. Ontario, OR

+++++

 

 

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONHop Harvest Edition was brewed in September of 2008 using 200 lbs of fresh Treasure Valley Chinook hop flowers from the John Wilmunster hop farm in Greenleaf, ID. A huge, fresh grapefruit profile complements the malty sweetness of this 9%, 100+ IBU fresh hop beer. Leafer Madness Imperial Pale Ale - 2008 Hop Harvest Edition has a green bottle cap and is hand stamped with "2008 Hop Harvest Edition" on the right side of the label.

 

FROM THE MOUTH: IMPERIAL/DOUBLE IPA: Nice presentation -  cloudy straw with a one finger head- sorry no picture because I drank it right away! WOW at 100 + IBU this is rock and roll IPA for any hop head. It picks you up and never lets you down. Strong presence of grapefruit- which is that citrus bitterness you're tasting. There's just enough mild caramel malt to blend  this into a smooth  dry very drinkable beer. Love it. A+
