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.

Founders Centennial IPA
Strong sweet hop aroma. Nice full flavored hoppiness that’s balanced very well by a strong malt backbone. Leaves you with a mostly malt taste but mixed with a strong hop presence at the same time.
Bottled 11/05/13, bought & drank on 1/3/2014, about 2 months old.

Better Bitters Nickel Brook Headstock
Nice sweet, sharp hop aroma. Crisp, hop sweetness that instead of a dry hop bite on the end of it, has a milky sweet smoothness. Further drinks have a complex combination of hop sweetness, hop dryness, and a malty caramel taste. Quite interesting. Especially for a Canadian beer.

Rustic Ales Bitter Old Fecker
Very notable sweet aroma, thick and heavy. Sharp sweet hop bite, but mellow/smooth on the backside. The barrel aged sweetness slowly sneaks in to the aftertaste. Bottle 438 of 816, small batch brewed. Hides the high alcohol content well. I can’t believe the small print says made with chamomile, rose petals, & juniper. Sounds yuck.

Epic Escape to Colorado
Mild sweet aroma. Nice fresh grain taste, not too hoppy. Gives full mouth malt followed by a hop bite on the end that fades slowly. Lovely hazy color.
