Sierra Nevada Southern Hemisphere Harvest Fresh Hop Ale
Bought this at my local liquor store in a 24 oz bottle. Pours a reddish copper color with a two inch frothy head that leaves quite a lace on the glass. The beer gives off aromas of citrus and pine hops. The taste starts off real strong with the piney hops and a little citrus kicking in before a slight sweet malt taste hits the tongue then the hops come back. The beer actually finishes with a strong hop bitterness that leaves a strong aftertaste, but a nice one. The taste is exceptional and well balanced, another great beer from Sierra Nevada. The mouthfeel is very smooth with a nice light creaminess and slight oily feeling on the tongue. The hops are not overwhelming which raises the drinkability of this beer.
