Commercial Description:\u00a0<\/strong>
\nCommercial Description: Stonehenge is a mystery. Hop Henge is a discovery. Millennium, Cascade, Centennial and Chinook hops come together to erect a hop sanctuary. Revere the almighty hop!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"Deschutes<\/a>Why I selected Hop Henge Experimental IPA:
\n<\/strong>You might not think of an imperial IPA as a typical holiday beer, but its release each December is anxiously awaited by Deschutes\u2019 loyal fans. \u00a0This big, bold IPA changes each year with a different combination of hops bringing new flavors. For 2014 Hop Henge delivers a big, bright herbal\/floral aroma with a touch of pine resin followed by strong spicy pine flavors and a bitter punch. \u00a0It\u2019s a big, refreshing break from the imperial stouts which tend to dominate my winter indulgences.<\/p>\n
