Timber is a refreshing American Pale Ale that highlights a unique botanical twist with the inclusion of Northwest hemp. The profile is characterized by a vibrant interplay between classic American hop traits and the dank, herbal, and earthy nuances of hemp. Expect a bouquet of citrus and pine supported by a clean, grainy malt backbone. Its hazy appearance suggests a modern take on the style, leaning into a soft texture and high drinkability. The finish is crisp and resinous, balancing moderate bitterness with a distinctive green, forest-like character that honors its namesake, providing a complex yet approachable sessionable experience.
Appearance.Pale gold to light amber (6-8 SRM). Hazy clarity as specified by the brewer, featuring a moderately large, persistent white head with good lacing.
Aroma.Moderately high aroma intensity featuring prominent citrus zest and pine resin. A distinct layer of dank, herbal, and slightly earthy notes arises from the Northwest hemp. Low, neutral grainy maltiness provides a clean foundation with very light fruity esters.
Taste.The palate is hop-forward, led by grapefruit and pine needle flavors. This is followed by a botanical, resinous, and herbal character derived from the hemp. Malt flavors are supportive and bready with minimal caramel. Bitterness is moderate and clean, leading to a dry finish where the 'green' hop and hemp oils linger pleasantly.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with moderate to high carbonation that provides a crisp, refreshing bite. The finish is smooth and free of astringency, with no perceived alcohol warmth due to the moderate gravity.
