Alas no pumpkin beers broke into my top of the month ranking but don’t be bitter about that. Get bitter with the three hoppy beers that I did love.
Starting with the honorable mention of my first ever beer from South O Brewing in Oceanside, Grave’s House IPA which just had a burst of fresh energy from it. It is hard to break through with so, so many IPAs out there but this was zippy from first sip to last.
Second was a fresh hop from Threshhold Brewing in Portland. They had some unique fresh hop styles but the tried and true Electric Falls IPA really showcased the Strata hops.
First was a big, big TIPA from Humble Sea Brewing, their Nectaron Socks & Sandals. Quite soft and pillowy while also hiding a double digit abv.
