Down, down, down Maelstrom will go, pulling the hapless beer enthusiast in with a beguiling blend of blood orange, Northwest hops and sweet orange peel. Stray to close and you may not escape the currents of this tender trap. Blood orange provides tartness and the blush of a brazen sea, Citra and amarillo hops from the Yakima Valley offer bite and aroma, and orange peel suggests a little something else on the wind. Maelstrom is brewed with pale, Munich and Dextri-pils malts bittered with German Northern Brewer and finished and dry-hopped with Citra and Amarillo.

Shared bottle from ModerHead. Hazy golden orange pour with a tall and tight white head which leaves ample lacing. Good carbonation. Sweet aromas up front: sweet citrus and orange juice, zest, copious malts, then a surprising abundance of citrus and light pine hops. Taste is lightly citrus sweet, oranges for certain, citrus zest, sweet malts and a very good dose of citrus and earthy pine hops bitter, more bitter as it warms a touch. More hops than expected from the nose. Nice and different. Thanks Dan for sharing.
