A soulful combo of bold Cascade hops, sweet Colorado blue spruce tips and a touch of caramel malt will satisfy your craving for something unique. Make this your first pick. Malts: Caramel, Two-Row According to Brewmaster Gabe Hopkins: "We combined sweet blue spruce tips from Colorado with bold Cascade hops from the Pacific Northwest to create this refreshingly unique IPA. We replaced some of the hops we would normally use with blue spruce tips harvested when they are at their sweetest: young and tender. The Cascade hops provide a tasty bitterness in the flavor¹s background. The end result is an extremely aromatic brew that will remind you of a walk in the Colorado mountains."

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 7

    Aroma wasnt as expected, i really was expecting something really piney but it didnt happen, the malts were as prevelant as the faint hops. Body and lace were pretty good, mouthfeel is very slightly sticky, finishes ok. Flavor is about even between the hops and caramel malts with no big pine or spruce presence. Overall it was just ok but a bit of a let down considering the name "Spruce Tip IPA".
