Purchased 3 new beers tonight: the two other Sierra Nevada Harvest Ales I haven't had yet the Harvest Wet Hop Ale and the Estate Brewer's Hop Ale and lastly a 4 pack of the Sam Adams Imperial White
You have an extremely rare beer in that Sierra Estate Harvest Ale. If I believe my grog shop seller (who is usually well-informed), there are only a few cases of the stuff getting out here to the east coast. She supposedly has laid claim to one of the cases so I'm hoping I have a bottle as well in the near future.
A true estate beer, with both the barley and the hops being grown on estate property, is practically non-existent. In the case of Sierra, they are utilizing fresh-picked, undried hops to really showcase the hop freshness.
I hope it lives up to expectations.
