I've had a fresh hop pale ale from Great Divide out here. It was good, nothing spectacular...fresh/wet hops tend to be a little lighter & citrusy. However, tis the hop season and it's definitely a seasonal brew so you'll probably find some around. I prefer hops that sorta punch you in the face, I tend to prefer dry hopping and even dry hopping at the table. I feel like such a fiend.

I hadn't ever heard of wet hops before, so I did some reading after Collette posted. Evidently, there is a difference between wet and fresh hops. Wet are to be used within 24 of harvesting while fresh is within 7 days.

Interesting stuff!

For those that don't know anything about it:

Sweet Baby Jesus is pretty damn good. It's a chocolate, peanut butter porter by DuClaw Brewing of Baltimore.
