Sierra Nevada Ale, Fresh Hop, Southern Hemisphere Harvest, 2011

Purest Ingredients. Finest quality. Each fall, hops reach their peak flavor - bursting with aromatic oils that give ales layers of complex flavor and aroma that can only happen at harvest time. For us, fall comes twice a year - once in each hemisphere. This Harvest Ale features wet or un-dried whole-cone hops from Yakima, WA that are plucked from the bine and delivered to our brewery within 24 hours of picking. Alc. 6.7% by vol. Brewed & bottled by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., Chico, CA.
