Full, strong, sweet aroma of sharp hops. Taste is a bright parade of hop bitterness that quickly fades and is replaced by a smooth malt and fresh hop flavor. Very little aftertaste. Leaves your mouth begging for another.

Founders Dankwood
First tasted cold and it was not good- no real flavor, just warm bourbon alcohol heat. Let it sit for a few minutes, it’s still cold-ish. Sweet aroma with hints of bourbon. Taste is smooth, with a broad malt flavor that mellows quickly and provides a mild bourbon flavor in background. Nice blend. Aftertaste leaves a bit too much bourbon for my taste.

Short’s Huma Lupa Licious
Sweet, tangy aroma of hops and caramel malt. Initial taste is soft, with a hop crispness on the back end. Further drinks repeats the approachable malt smoothness with the jagged hop edge on the back end. Very drinkable. On tap tends to have a brighter hop flavor.
