Mmmmm, the Deschutes Brewery Bond Street Series continues to impress.
The lastest release is Hop Henge, a tasty, proper IPA. 7%, available at the brewery or in 22oz bottles at select retailers.
As I heard from a friend the other day, this beer reminds him of the first great beers that Deschutes Brewery served him when he got to bend 8 years ago. It has a craft brewery flavor, and thick hop character. Just as an IPA should.
I highly recommend picking one up. I’ve you enjoy IPA, you will enjoy the Hop Henge.

And here I am, unable to drink for many months. Sigh. Oh well, at least Sam has risen to the challenge and is drinking for two.

Yes, kick a$$ beer! I’m not a big hop head but my wife is. I prefer the big malty beers, but my wife doesn’t. And we both love Hop Henge!
We had it from 22s at Liquid Solutions’ tasting a couple weekends ago, and have since found it at New Seasons in Hillsboro (had to ask for it though. It was ‘in the back’).

great beer, but from a northwestern (aka portland - aka beervana)little malty in the mouth. Finish has good bitterness at first but lacks the hoppiness intensity.
