Still fresh hop beers out there though the clock is certainly ticking on them. Before that buzzer rings, I wanted to review a local version from Common Space Brewery, Yakima Fresh! with hops from Carpenter Ranches and Sauve and Son.
YF! pours a real clear dark yellow and it is quite delicate overall. The aroma is fairly muted, no big whiff of lupulin, more a light touch of lemon. The flavor follows that course with lemon and grassy notes intermingling but only lightly bitter. It is interesting that once Common Space got the fresh hops, they were pelletized by hand at the brewery and then used as dry hopping.
