Sierra Nevada Northern Hemisphere Harvest Wet Hop Ale (this title typing caper is thirsty work). I'm not quite able to believe that I am going to say this - but I think it would be much nicer if they cut back the crystal a bit and brought the bitterness down a touch further than that. Nice beer though. Lovely spiciness which I think suffers slighty at the hands of the thick mouthfeel and lingering bitterness.
 
2 yr old stubby of big helga. Quite delicious. Bitterness has developed and nice sweet maltiness on the nose.

This is AWESOME I want to have its babies!

Edit: Sorry cant rotate on iPad.
 
Duvel, yum. Luckily for you, and all of us, it is more common in Australia, get hunting!

*edit - now I've rotated the picture I see it is Tripel hop - is this a different brew from the normal golden Ale, or just different packaging?

I'm chugging on a 1 litre growler of Rodenbach Grand cru, fresh from Steves cool booze kingsford.
Not cheap at $25 a litre but couldn't go past it just this once.
 
Duvel Tripel Hop is brewed once a year. First one (2010) was done with Saaz-Saaz. 2011 with Amarillo. This years is Citra and it is incredible. Available in Australia at a few select places.

'Every year, our Duvel brewers select a different third hops variety for the Tripel Hop. The result is a richer taste pallet, extra hops aroma and increased bitterness strength'
