83 more posts after this one and we'll be at a total of 95,000 in CTN history.
Wonder who'll be the lucky one to post #100K?

Northern Hemisphere Wet Hop Ale-Sierra Nevada

I'll let the brewer explain first:

The cornerstone of our Harvest series is the beer that started the modern-day fresh hop ale phenomenon in America, our original Harvest Ale.

Created in 1996, Harvest Ale features Cascade and Centennial hops from the Yakima Valley in Eastern Washington. These hops are harvested and shipped as “wet” un-dried hops—the same day they are picked—to our brewery in Chico where our brewers eagerly wait to get them into the brew kettle while their oils and resins are still at their peak


alcohol content 6.7% by volume malts Two-row Pale & Caramel
beginning gravity 16.5 Plato yeast Top-fermenting Ale Yeast
ending gravity 4.0 Plato bittering hops Centennial
bitterness units 60-65 finishing hops Cascade & Centennia



Now, it's my turn. This is the 3rd wet hop ale I have ever tasted and it is a great concept and product. The 1st may have been Southern Hemisphere from Sierra Nevada also. The 2nd was So Fresh, So Green Green from Terrapin, but that was only a 1-2 ounce taster from Tyler's when the server brought the wrong 1st beer so I got a free sample but didn't review it. I gotta buy a bomber of it. This one has a pungent, citrus-laced nose and a slightly oily, resin/citrus blend taste. The color is golden and the head is foamy and lingered thoughout the 12 ounces I had with dinner and again for the closer for the evening. As I mentioned in the dinner thread, tonight's dinner was pretty simple but this ale would pair well with curry or spicy grilled fare, too. CB&B found this in Blacksburg and was a trader last month. An excellent find.

Now I gotta go out and find a bottle of the Hoptimum that bluebeer liked so much...


This may also be post #95000 on CTN.
