This is the next beer that I am searching out. I know a few stores near my work have it so hopefully it won't be too long before i can find some.

"Aurora Hoppyalis is our San Diego-style IPA brewed with Simcoe, Mosaic, Amarillo, and Citra hops. Robust flavors and aromas of tropical fruit, pine, and tangerine linger through a dry, crisp finish"

Damn, why didn't I think of this name?
Never heard of it but the hop assembly looks nice.

Wow...can't go wrong with that combination of hops.

Correct-a-mundo!

The same combo is in my Belgian Summer IPA that went in the keg about a week ago...

Early sample are outstanding so the Aurora Hoppyalis should be pretty good...

I will look for it also!

I think it just got released and I'm normally reluctant to buy a sixer of something untested.
But it's Karl Strauss. And it's got Simcoe, Amarillo, Citra and Mosaic.
And I can always share.

Hmm... it makes me want to sing a happy song. AU RORA HOPPY ALLES... AU RORA HOPPY ALLES. HOPPY ALLES. AU RORA. AU RORA HOPPY ALLES!

So....yeah.....I picked some up.

Review pending.

Oh, crap. This is good beer. It smells exactly like you think it would: fruity, piney, citrusy, a bit resiny...and that is exactly how it tastes, too.
Nothing is over the top and it all plays together nicely to make a complex and tasty beverage. I find that if I allow it to touch every part of my mouth and tongue I get different sensations and flavors.
While I liked the recent Firestone Luponic Distortion because it spotlights a single hop with a simple background in the grain bill - this is the opposite of that. Lots of different flavors playing around and man, if I could get that complex aroma on one of my beers I'd be a happy camper.

Well done, Mr Strauss.

Thanks for sending one of these my way Ron. I poured this one late last night. I said in an earlier post, that you couldn't go wrong with the combination of hops that are in this. And there couldn't be anything further from the truth.

WOW...this is a great beer. I really wish I could get this where I live. It was so full of fruitiness, kind of felt like I was drinking a blended juice of pineapple, tangerine/orange, and some tropical stuff in there with a little pine too. My palette isn't all that sophisticated, but this is one of the few beers that even I can pick out each one. So refreshing and so easy to drink. Very Good....thanks Ron!!
