Nice floral hop bouquet, with a tiny hint of dark malt in background. Very smooth, with hop flavor but no hop bite. Very interesting mingling of hop flavors and slightly sweet dark malts, with neither flavor taking center stage. Very clean, soft finish, with no real lingering flavors except a hint of malt.
Bright flowery/citrus hop aroma. Clean taste of hops with a kind of bitterness that doesn’t have an edge to it. Overall smooth on the palate, but with lots of hop flavor. Minor hop bitterness in the aftertaste, even if the mouthfeel still is soft. Interesting combination that’s both sessionable and bitter at the same time.
American India Pale Lager. Sweet hop aromas. Crisp bite of hops right away, gives way to a nice well blended malt flavor. Fades to a slightly harsh hop aftertaste. Overall a kind of light mouthfeel, but packed with strong flavors.
Sweet smell with a slightly sour lager aroma. Very strong initial hop taste, but mellows very quickly. Immediately replaced my a light malt flavor then fades out smoothly leaving just vacant hints of malt and hops.
4.5 out of 5 Stars.
