Hop Valley Brewing Co. This is an interesting brewery just a little off the beaten path. The owners must be Frisbee Golfers as they sell disks. Its a fairly large brewery with many big fermenters and bright tanks, a tasting room, large patio, small kitchen and restaurant seating area. they sell bottled and canned beer on premise. The first beer I had was the Alphadelic IPA, this is a moderate IPA with a citrus nose and moderate hop flavor that lingers. The next beer was the Proxima IPA that you can get in bottles. This beer is a slightly darker and has a sweeter maltiness and less hop bitterness, a very good beer even if on the lighter side for an IPA. The next beer was the Alpha Centauri Bibary IPA, this is an imperial IPA that doesn't come off like a big imperial but has a good lingering hop bitterness, this is a good beer as well, I could drink several if I didn't have to drive....
The next beer was the Citrus Mistress IPA, this beer has a really nice balance of malt and hops with slight lingering hops in the finish. They sell this beer in six-packs on site. The next beer was the Step Child Red, this is a malty NW Red ale with ax nice hop profile and a sneaky 8# Alcohol by volume rating. The last beer I tried was the bohemian dub hop, this beer has some biscuit malt for a different flavor that is really good, it has some nice lingering hop bitterness but not the harsh type.

I did not try the food here but the beer is certainly worth the stop. They sell pint glasses and have coasters for you collectors.....
