TASTING NOTES
👀 HOW’S IT LOOK?
Gold body with a slight hop haze, quickly receding – but dense white head.
👃 WHAT AM I SMELLING?
Dankness and pineapple. A touch of mango. Hints of melon.
👅 HMMM, THAT TASTES LIKE…
Pineapple and tropical fruits up front. Firm bracing bitterness in the finish. Mango. Clean, dry finish leaves you wanting more.
😋 THERE’S A PARTY IN MY MOUTH!
Bubbly and dry. Crisp.
🍻 TL;DR
Tropical, dry, bitter. Get yur’ old school IPA on!

Top Secret Intelligence Report
Scientists believe it came from planet X-331, landing in the fields of the sleepy American town of Corvallis, Oregon. The residents and good people of this hamlet went about their lives unaware that in the hop fields a new strain was growing and taking over. Where most hop varieties lend their flavor profiles to meld together in harmony, the Strata hop has only sole world domination on its mind – forming a perfect flavor profile by itself and answering to no one. Leaders from across the globe beg one question, “what does it want?”
The radical beatniks say, “it tastes like the wacky tabaccy daddy-o! It’s a total gas man, but without the taste of gas – can you dig?” Authorities arrested that man, and added that they were temporarily blinded by the bright-fresh pineapple and grapefruit aroma. You hold the fate of our planet, a sample of this new strain contained in an aluminum vessel. Stay safe and don’t let it fall into the wrong hands.
