Sierra Nevada Southern Hemisphere Harvest Fresh Hop Ale
24oz bottle poured into pint glass and mug Appearance: Pours a very nice head that lasts quite a while. It then dissipates into rocky foam and then eventually into a foamy lacing. The color is a medium amber. Smell: Very floral and smells very strongly of citrus fruits, mostly orange and some pineapple. Taste: very floral and citrus from the hops. Just too many characteristics from the malt a "sunny tasting beer" Mouthfeel: smooth and perfectly carbonated but with a hop bite. Not quite IPA but its noticeable. Drinkability: Very drinkable. To me this is much like their Pale ale only souped up with more and slightly different tasting hops. Its a hoppier APA however not quite an IPA. Very good if you like Sierra's pale ale which in my opinion is one of the most refreshing flavorful beers. This just offers more bite, its a great beer but for the price I don't know if I'd choose this over the Pale Ale. Go for it though while you still have the chance.
