Review from 01/31/07

A - Pours a clear dark golden body with lots of action in the glass. Slightly off white head is about one finger with excellent lacing and retention. Check that, head wore down all at once after a couple minutes.

S - Earthy hops at the center with light pale malts backing it up. Bready.

T - Earthy hops. Touch of pine needles. Very bready malts are much more present here than in the nose. The label says "A Very Hoppy Beer". I don't know that this is really what I am getting here. I get a nice initial hop blast, then a lot of biscuity malt flavor.

M - Medium bodied with ever so slight oily characteristics. Carbonation is light and smooth.

D - This is more of a pale ale in my opinion. Not bad at all, but not "A Very Hoppy Beer".

Pours a golden colour with a half inch of head. Smells of grapefruit, and other citrus. This beer makes my mouth water after I take a drink. Bitter finish, but not so bitter you don't want to have another mouthful. Big fan of this beer.
