7.2%
I think they finally stopped calling it a pale ale and just went with went unfiltered ale.

This is a couple of months "old" now but still very danky and delicious.

It's "slap yo' momma" good.
Like always, the aroma bursts out of the bottle as soon as it's opened. Once poured, you can smell it from a couple of feet away - wow.
It's everything I remember it to be: orange, tangerine, maybe lemon on the nose - nothing dank here. And it comes with that indescribable (by me anyway) smell that you only get from wet hops.
It's 7.2%, but drinks like 5%. Some versions in the past have tasted like 7%/strong, but this is just smooth and easy to drink. It wasn't until I was done and looked at the label that I realized how strong it was. It's super flavorful without being overpowering. Meaning, I could session drink this (if it weren't 7.2%, I just don't have that in me these days).
Suffice it to say, it's fookin' awesome (credit to mashani for stealing his phrase).
Find it. Buy it. Drink it.

Just waiting for it to arrive here, hopefully this weekend. So the only difference between this and the past versions are the fresh hops? I like that!

They always use fresh/wet hops - that's the genesis of the beer itself. I'm not sure if they are using different hops or if they continue to use the same hops and just release this right after harvest - but it's damn good.
