Surprisingly low-key for its resort location and equally surprising are the reasonable prices. Very impressive bottle selection with knowledgeable and friendly beer-geeky staff. Great way to celebrate an engagement!

Island Hoppin' Brewery - Orcas Island, WA

Clean, fun, and packed with people (thought it only takes a dozen or so
people to pack it!). On the wall sits a nice shelf of personalized mugs
for regulars. Peanuts on the floor (and peanuts are free). Seems to be a
community hangout that a lot of locals frequent. And although we didn’t
take advantage of it, there’s a small number of seats located in the
actual brewery, as opposed to the tap room. A nice little collection of
brewery-provided board games could make for a really enjoyable evening
with a small group of friends. Great prices, 4.50/pint. Northwest-style
snacks.

This beer is darker and maltier than you’d expect from a Belgian pale. Tastes like a watered-down tripel or amber and the enjoyment declined over the course of the glass. A challenge to describe…probably wouldn’t get it again, but glad we’d tried it. We definitely know a few people who would enjoy this beer!!

Not for the faint of heart. Hoppy nose! Hoppy flavor! Super-hoppy bitter! Great malt balance. Medium mouthfeel. Incredibly aromatic nose. Lingers for days. Beautiful bronze color with great clarity. It’s a hop bomb that is dropped with precision.
