A new beer that has shown up in Foodland over the past few weeks, they had a product promo girl tonight giving tasting samples. No, she was not hot, but she knew her product well. This is this Oregon breweries version of a Heffe. Pours a very cloudy medium dark yellow with light head. As promised, this is stronger on the hops than your usual heff, however the aroma is not too strongly floral. It’s more citrusy with a bit of bitter bite, even though the IBU isn’t extreme. The wheat and grain flavors are pretty subtle and hard to detect. Touted as a “session” beer, it’s ABV is low, at below 4%. Medium mouth feel.
Not sure how much I like the hop forward heffe, but it’s not objectionable. I’ll give it just making 3 out of 4 hop confused monkeys.
