Sierra Nevada typically isn't one of my favorites. However, I have had my eye on
the 24 ounce bottles of Southern Hemisphere Harvest seasonal. The other night,
Shawn brought one over to share.
The intrigue of the beer is that apparently in the Southern Hemisphere, the seasons are backwards. During our spring, they are having fall. During their fall, Sierra Nevada gets a fall harvest of hops and makes this seasonal ale.
It was pretty good! It was, of course, very hoppy, but it had a nice malty flavor. The beer was smooth, and had a solid 6.7% ABV. For me. It wasn't a drink all day beer, but it went well with some chicken off of the grill.
If you see their 24 ounce bottles, pick one up. They aren't bad.
