A very bitter and hoppy beer from Sierra Nevada. This beer has ‘fresh’ hops, from that comes the name ‘Wet hops ale’. This is a beer for hop lovers but I had expected a little bit more aroma hops. This is VERY bitter and that is fine but it doesn’t have that sweetness and boldness in the hops as some other beers in the category. Feels very heavy in it’s maltiness and maybe that is why the hops doesn’t stand out as much as I would have liked it. To balance such a high hoppines you either have to be heavy on the alcohol or heavy on the malt and this is definitely the latter. I guess that it is a matter of what you prefer.
