Says bottled on 3/14/16 so it’s amazing the freshness expected, with just a little over a month shelf life. Nice aroma of fresh, sharp hops. Crisp hop bite with a bit of a sweet aftertaste that’s a bit tangy. If “dank” means halfway between resinous and fruity, that’s how I’d describe this.
Very nice strong hop aroma. Full mouth flavor of slightly sharp, slightly sweet hop flavor. Aftertaste is very strong hop resinous flavor, with a kind of grapefruit tartness that lingers.
Strong sweet aroma. Full flavored sweetness very reminiscent of Hopslam, but without the hint of honey sweetness. Hop harshness mixed with a malt sweetness that leaves a slightly harsh hop aftertaste. Can taste hints of the high alcohol mixed in there.
Very strong sweet aroma, almost like rotten or over ripe fruit. Sweet, puckering taste with a sharp hop bite on the backside. Lingering hop aftertaste at a low level. No notable alcohol flavor like you might expect with 10% ABV. Just a very strong, slightly harsh hop flavor to let you know something unique is going on.
Very sweet hop smell, almost smells sticky. Intense hop and malt flavor greets you then quickly fades to a mild hop taste then lingers there for a long time. You can taste the grapefruit, but it’s a bit excessive, the regular Hopstache is better balanced to my palate.
Rich sweet hop aroma, but not too strong. Nice sharp hop bite with a strong malt flavor in the background. Finishes with a nice balance of hops and malt and minor hop flavors fading in the distance. Gives no hint of its big ABV. Label says 040514, but it’s May 9th. I got this as a gift from someone a little over a month ago, so I must have missed the best by date by a month. I wonder how it would be fresh.
Nice dry, sweet hop smell. Nice strong hop flavor with a bit of malt sweetness. Not much aftertaste other than a faint clean sweetness of grains. Delicious blend of go sweetness and malt grain flavor. Drank on 2/1/2014, so I made it in time.
