We are excited to introduce Equinox to our line of Single Hop IPAs. Equinox comes to us out of Hop Union's Hop Breeding program in the Pacifi c Northwest. Our initial impression is that it reminds us of some of our favorite American varieties, with a lot of citrus and tropical fruit underscored by a pleasant herbal character. The citrus is brighter in this one, more lemon-lime than orange or grapefruit. The bitterness is present but not harsh, imparting a slightly resinous, pine-like fl avor. The finish is also bright and cooling with a touch of spice. I got the impression of mint, but the growers notes actually reference green apple and green pepper.
