/> <strong>Country</strong> – United States<br
/> <strong>Type</strong> – American Pale Ale</p><p><strong>Appearance</strong> – Pours a slightly hazy rust color with nice sized white head that left a lot of lacing on the glass.</p><p><strong>Smell</strong> – Definitely hoppy with lemon, pine and earthy aromas hitting your nose.</p><p><strong>Taste</strong> – Very crisp taste with pretty much the same hoppy flavors as the smell.  A small bit of a malt backing to it.</p><p>I enjoyed this one but not as much as the <a
href="http://www.mikelovesbeer.com/archives/2008/11/16/sierra-nevada-12th-release-harvest-wet-hop-ale/" target="_self">Harvest Wet Hop</a> from last year.  The malt backing was very slight with a lot of emphasis seemingly on the hops.  For hop heads that&#8217;s fine but some people like the balance and it didn&#8217;t seem to balanced out.  But that is not to take anything away from this it is just a note for those that like a good amount of malt with their hops.</p><p><strong>Overall Grade</strong> – B</p> <a
