I previously reviewed Bottomcutter Imperial IPA from Bale Breaker Brewing Company. I gave that beer a 4.75 out of 5. Fresh off the Farm isn’t quite as good but it still rates high. I wouldn’t hesitate to pick up anything from Bale Breaker if I saw it on the shelf.
From Bale Breaker Brewing Company website:
Fresh off the Farm IPA was brewed in the center of hop field 41, just minutes from downtown Yakima, by Bale Breaker Brewing Company. A big hop aroma on a clean Pilsner malt base perfectly showcases a few of the newest and most exciting hop varieties off their family’s hop farm. Whirlpool additions of Loral™ and Mosaic® add depth to the nose generated from a post-fermentation charge of Mosaic® and the experimental HBC 630. Originally brewed as the official beer of Seattle Beer Week 2017, this brew is being re-released to celebrate Bale Breaker’s Fifth Anniversary. Get it while you can!
