Odell Wolf Picker Experimental IPA

The name Wolf Picker comes from a harvesting rig, not from somebody who picked at wolves, or a judge in a wolf beauty contest, or someone who does wolf tattoos. Apparently every year the Wolf Picker features a different strain of hops. 

Wolf Picker IPA pours a slightly hazy golden hue, with a towering four-finger head. Although the IBU count is a conservative 41, it tastes like it should be higher. Interesting mixture of grapefruit and pine notes. Other than those two, there are hints of lemon grass, coriander, and some floral & tropical fruit notes, all very subdued. This is what you want - nothing overwhelming anything else, no added fruit flavors - everything that you taste coming from the hops and the malt. I'd seriously recommend if you like to be able to taste your IPAs and not be drowned in bitterness.
