Widmer Alchemy Ale

Widmer Brothers is from Portland, Oregon. This 5.8% ABV beer is named after the Alchemy hops that it uses. Unfortunately, a trademark dispute also means that Great Lakes Brewing can't name their delicious double IPA Alchemy Hour again.

The beer pours amber in color with a tall thick and creamy off-white head. The aroma is fruity hops, citrus, passion fruit and orange. The taste is toasted barley, caramel with the fruit of the hops on that malty base. This is a pleasant easy drinker, a good session ale.
