Mild, but deep caramel malt aroma with slight hop aroma. Bite is crisp, and then complex and tasty malt flavor floods the palate. Moderate hop flavor towards the back end, which gets replaced with a dry malty finish.
Light amber malt aroma, with hints of hops. Slightly crisp taste, then good mix of caramel malts and hops, all in nice balance. Aftertaste is steady, moderate hop flavors. Very nice, would be interested to see how much better it was fresher.
Moderate dank hop aroma. Crisp bite that clears the palate and initially leaves little behind, then slowly moderate dank hop flavor build a bit. Very dry finish.
Strong sweet fruity hop aroma. Smooth on the palate, with mouthful of hop flavor. Then fades smoothly to mild hop flavor combined with yeast sweetness and pale malt. Slight orange-y aftertaste.
Faint aroma of caramel malts. Taste is a slightly tart combination of yeast, amber malt, ama a clean bread malt. Finishes fairly smooth with a mild aftertaste of ripe fruit. Overall clean. Decent, but not exciting.
Thick, sticky sweet hop aroma. Taste is fairly smooth, without a hop bite. Flavor is moderate hops, but finishes fairly clean, with a hint of grapefruit-like sour in the background.
Mild fruity and dank hop aroma. Soft hop bite followed by super strong flavor mix of hops. Aftertaste is danky and resinous. A ton of heavy hop flavors, but you don’t really taste the alcohol of the 9.0%.
Faint sweet aroma of hops and malt. Fruity and smooth flavor, with no hop bitterness. Almost fruity, with smooth hop flavors on the palate. Aftertaste is moderate fruitiness.
Bright hop aroma. Taste has a slight crispness, then full rush of multiple hop flavors. Super flavorful, but not bitter. Slight fruity twang in aftertaste that fades to varying hop flavor medley with a bit of yeast dryness.
