Strong sweet aroma, concentrated, almost like honey. Strong bitter hop flavor gives way to a slightly caramel malt flavor. Aftertaste is a drying malt taste with hop bitterness lingering in the background. Tastes like a strong beer, and is, at 8.9% ABV. Up front and in your face with an assertive, but not quite overpowering flavor assault.
Super strong aroma of fruity hops. Smooth, but slightly biting tinge of hop flavor gives way to a broader hop flavor blend and a creamy malt smoothness. Very full taste yet somehow light with a lingering aftertaste of sweet hops and creamy malt.
Fresh sweet aroma that’s a nice even mix of hops and malt. Crisp hop bite that’s slightly fruity, but has a bitter edge to it. Full mouth flavor. Slightly bitter hop aftertaste lingers together with a nice bready malt flavor. Malt flavor dissipates, then hop bitterness slowly fades away.
Super sweet, strong hop bitterness aroma. Full-flavored hop sweetness, slightly bitter, but transitions to a clean malt flavor with no lingering hop bitterness. Very flavorful, but surprisingly smooth finish.
Sweet hop aroma with a slight hop sharpness, almost reminiscent of pepper. Clean flavored slightly bitter taste of hops and grapefruit, finishing with a clean malt taste. A mild hop bitterness lingering in far away background. Very delicious.
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.
Fresh, bright hop aroma. Taste is slightly sweet with a tart hop bite. Followed by nice mild malt flavor, then lingering mild hop bitterness in aftertaste.
Nice hop aroma – sweet but not too strong, with a hint of fresh yeast smell. Nice full flavor that’s equal part hops, light malt, and yeast. Slight hop bitterness in the aftertaste.
Sweet, sticky aroma. Crisp taste bite quickly followed by a rush of berry flavor. Slight crispness at the end like you just had a bite of a fresh crisp apple. Then the fruit flavor vanishes and leaves with a mild malt taste intermixed with mellow very fruit flavor. Crisp and refreshing.
Dark, sweet, heavy malt aroma. Full coffee flavor that quickly subsides and leaves you with a full-out feel of sweetness. Slight lingering mix of dark malt sweetness and carbonation.
4 out of 5 stars.
