Oskar Blues G’Knight

Moderate sweet smell with a bit of hoppiness. Full flavored sweetness that finishes off with a combination of hops, malt, and flavor of high alcohol. Aftertaste is a bit sweet, slightly harsh. Calls itself an Imperial Red IPA. Not sure which word the imperial goes with. Flavor-wise, I think it’s an imperial red that’s also hoppy.

3.5 out of 5 Stars.

Slight hop aroma, slight dry grain aroma. Mild sweet flavor with a slight hop flavor mixed with a kind of orange juice flavor. Slight fruity aftertaste which fades quickly. Of course after I get it home and read the bottle closely, our says best by Apr 09 12. Today is Dec 08 12, so I missed that by 8 months. I’m sure that doesn’t help…

Very sweet smell, makes your nosebuds pucker- if that’s something that can actually happen. Can smell hints of the bourbon barrel. Taste initially is slightly harsh, but the mellowing effect of the barrel kicks in and smooths out out. Leaves a slight bourbon/malt aftertaste. Not too strong of bourbon, but if you can’t stand it you might want to avoid this one.
