Faint sweet hop aroma. Sharp bite of hops that gets filled in by a chorus of hop flavor that wants away the bitterness and leaves with a nice mild hop sweetness. Refreshing and flavorful, bright.

Great aromas like sniffing a bag of hops. You can even get the aroma while holding the glass a good 6-8 inches from your nose. Phenomenal. Nice sweet hop bite that’s very flavorful and not bitter. A good chunk of caramel malt sweetness rushes in for attention, but generally gets pummeled back by hops flavor. Notable, but not overpowering hop flavor in the aftertaste that lingers a long time. Great beer, but I don’t think my taste buds could handle the onslaught of more than one.

Begyle Crash Landed
Full sweet hop aroma. Flavor is clean and slightly crisp with a mild hop bite followed by a smoothing malt taste that waves in. Aftertaste is a mix of moderate hop bitterness, and a sweet creaminess of malt. Very nice frothy fluffy head.

Amsterdam Cruiser All Day Pale Ale
Strong floral hop aroma. Crisp hop bite that catches your attention, then an immediate drying hop crispness on the back end. Lingering hop bitterness with a slightly “green hop” edge to it. Further drinks provide a huge aroma of hops like you’re burying your head in a bag full of ’em. Very clean, dry aftertaste.

Blackrocks Flying Sailor
Nice fruity hop aroma. Crisp hop bite equally matched by a rye malt sharpness. Hop flavor mostly disappears and leaves a nice malty taste with a rye aftertaste. Very clean and tasty.

Sweet aroma of hops and fruit. Crisp flavor bite with a rush of fruitiness that instantly sets taste buds watering. Nice mild clean malt flavor in background that transitions into a nice lingering malt and yeast flavor. Very refreshing, full flavored, and clean tasting.
