No noticeable hop aroma. Sweet taste with a bit of bitterness on the back end. A hint of grapefruit-like palate cleansing effect, with a hint of bitterness. Smooth malt taste in the middle.

Filling Station The Wobbly Double IPA
Excellent sweet hop aroma, smells like a bag full of fresh hops. Smooth mouthfeel with a nice moderate hop flavor, lingers slightly hoppy but not bitter at all. Can’t tell it’s 8.3%.

Filling Station Omena Harvest Ale
Fresh taste, not as hoppy as the description makes it sound. Fairly low bitterness bite, but decent hop flavor. Can taste the malt backing, menu days German pale, biscuit makes, and hint of crystal. I think I can taste the biscuit.

Short’s Ermagerdness
Great fruity hop aroma. Sharp hop bite with a hop aftertaste that lingers between a harshness and a full palate full of varied hop flavors.
4.5 out of 5 Stars.
Short’s Sticky Icky Icky
Sweet hop aroma. Crisp hop bite, gives way to a harsh hop flavor. Lingering hop aftertaste. Additional drinks mellows the hop edge and makes it nice.

Fat Head’s Head Hunter
Very sweet hop aroma, almost like pineapple juice. Clean, sweet bite. Full-flavored, but not overpowering. Slight hop flavor lingers and fades out with some sweetness. A lot of floaters in there. Only 2.5 months old, and bought from the cooler, so should be ok.

Deschutes Inversion
Strong sweet aroma. Sharp mix of hop sweetness and malt sweetness. Finishes with a clinging malt flavor that’s both sweet and clean.

Blackrocks 51K IPA
Sweet hops smell with hints of fresh yeast. Crisp hop bite, with good mix of hops and malt. Dry, not to sweet or too much aftertaste. Maybe a hint of yeast flavor in mild aftertaste.

Stone Enjoy by 04.20.15
Strong sweet hop aroma, very succulent. Initial flavor has hop bite, then quickly changes to a mixed hop bouquet of flavors. Backed up by a hearty malt backing, but left with a hop bitterness than lingers. Very powerful flavors going on here, but excellently balanced and doesn’t give me any hints of its massive ABV.

Latitude 42 I.P.EH!
Sweet, almost pungent, body odor aroma. Crisp, full mouth flavor of his and malt. Taste fades quickly, leaving hints of hop, but very clean finish.
