Quick Take: Sierra Nevada Southern Hemisphere Fresh Hop Harvest Ale
Sierra Nevada Southern Hemisphere Fresh Hop Harvest AleAppearance: Clear red/amber. Pretty big head that cuts to 1/2 an inch fairly quick.
Smell: Hoppy, but not overwhelming. You can definitely smell the malt.
Taste: This beer begs to be on cask (Do you hear that Sierra Nevada? BEGS to be on cask! In Boston.). First taste is hop bitterness, quickly followed by massive hop taste. It's like grapefruit spice. WOW! Feels less carbonated than a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Light carbonation helps in drinkability, especially as it makes the hops less aggressive and more flavorful. This beer made us burp hops, by the way...we like that. This beer may be even better than their regular Fresh Hop ale!
After thought: super dank hops! yeah that's right we said dank, what of it?
