Anderson Valley Hop Ottin' IPA has their beer (bear-deer) standing placidly on the label and calling the attention of passersby with his clam and pointy antlers. Although the company explains he's a fortuitous portmanteau, the mystic in me wants to believe he's some spirit animal, protecting those who imbibe.

The IPA has a sour-sweet smell, typical of craft ales. The bitter hops explode on the tongue; I appreciate it after those kind of wimpy beers. It's still heady when I refill my glass, with a fluffy, smooth foam. The beer is a real pick-me-up, good to begin an evening with, or to relax at the end.
