Strong aroma of fresh, green hops. Taste is a mix of hops and caramel malt. A bit to strong on the caramel malt for my taste. Finishes fairly clean/dry with lingering mix of caramel malt and green hop taste.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
Bottled 7/21/2020, tasted on 10/15/2022.
Heavy sweet aroma, with hints of alcohol hiding in the background. Initial taste is slightly sweet, but crisp. Fades and blends into various heavy, smooth, dark malt tastes. Minor aftertaste of slightly sweet malt- but not dark or heavy. Surprisingly drinkable for 10% ABV.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
Bright, fruity hop aroma. Very sweet taste from yeast and the malt makes it very smooth, with no hop bite. Overall a bit too fruity and sweet for my tastes.
3 out of 5 stars.
Strong sweet aroma of fruit and a sweet treat. Flavor has a crisp bite from hops intermixed with malt and yeast, that gives saliva glands a kick and immediately becomes mouth-watering. Aftertaste is a mild one of hops in background with a bit of mild malt taste. Overall finish is very dry.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
Faint fruit juice aroma. Taste continues the juice impression, but combined with a mild IPA in the background. Finishes with some light malt flavors, a bit of hop bitterness, and the slight grapefruit juice taste.
Rated at the edge of being old. Canned 2/9/2022, tasted on 7/28/2022.

Clean crisp aroma of hops and a bit of yeast sweetness. First taste slices through the palate cleanly with a hoppy edge and mild caramel malt sweetness right behind it. Finishes cleanly with a nice yeast flavor showing up, again supported by hop bitterness and mild caramel malt. Amazing flavor balance of all three with a full flavor punch that somehow doesn’t feel too heavy.

Nice clean aroma of bitter hops. Crisp hop bitterness on front of palate work a cleansing attack. Mike caramel malt hidden in background behind layers of hop flavor and bitterness. Lingering hip bitterness intermixed with a slight yeast twang. Superb.
This can is 3 months old.

Fresh hop aroma, somewhat grassy. Crisp bite that mellows quickly and leaves a slightly wine grape like flavor from the yeast. Refreshing and light, with a slightly sweet overtone.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
Thick dark malt aroma. Full flavor of dark malt, but with a crispness to it instead of a sweetness. Flavorful dance of hops and dark malt, never wore sure which one is taking lead. His contribute a nice clean bitterness, not fruity at all. Very inspiring.
5 out of 5 stars.
Phenomenal carbonation, glad it’s a giant stream of steady little bubbles everywhere. Sweet aroma of nice stone fruit hops. Taste is sweet, almost puckering, with juicy hop flavor. Slight drying on the palate from the yeast on the back end, then leaves mouth fairly dry with just a hint of hops in background.
4 out of 5 stars.
