I've had that happen too, then the whole time you are drinking it you are trying to figure what it was, but enjoying it no-less.............

Sierra Nevada Hop Hunter IPA....pretty damn good, but, it gets a little wierdness on the aroma as it warms up. It's a weird mix of the pine and dankness.

I found that Hop Hunter to be a bit odd. It was really oily/resiny for me and I didn't really care much for it.

Everyone's tastes are different - I like that stuff. But I like dank piney/earthy beers (100% Apollo hop beer that literally had lupulin colored floating hop "oil slick" when I dumped it into the fermenter tasted awesome to me). I liked it a lot more then I liked the last Enjoy By I tried.

EDIT: I'm drinking my Kilt Skiers Bier de Mars, which is earthy and spicy with some citrus/tartness.

Nice! I'll be back there for the 3rd time in about 4 weeks myself. I'm looking forward to disconnecting completely.

Also very cool, I love Spokane! And on our sweep through there last year, No-Li was the best brewery I recall hitting.

No-Li was excellent. I will also put a vote in for Bridger Brewing in Missoula, MT as a close second place.
