Faint, dry, hops aroma. Slightly sweet hop bite with a nice mellow malt taste right there with it. Finishes with a back and forth mixing of the malt and hops kind of fighting over who’s going to lead. Warming a bit seems to tame the sharpness of the hop bite and leave more malty aftertaste.

Faint dark malt aroma with a bit of sweetness. Dark malt flavor with mild coffee background. Finishes slightly sweet but leaves little aftertaste.

Fresh, slightly sweet hop aroma. Full mouth hoppy taste with a slight edge of harshness. Harshness fades and replaced with an overall nice hop flavor. Kind of like a 1-2 punch, where you prefer the ‘2’.

Nice hoppy aroma. Good strong hop taste with a harsh bite and then clean drop off of taste. Nice flavor if you like hops.

Moderate sweet, clean aroma. Nice sharp hop bite that immediately smacks into a strong sweetness that brings on the saliva glands. Leaves you with a strong freshness of hops with a hint of grapefruit sourness. Excellent beer.

Kind of yucky aroma like body odor, taste starts a bit harsh, but is immediately followed by a nice malt taste. Amazing after all that up front that there’s very little aftertaste. In the end, I’m not sure what to think. After a few more tastes, the malty aftertaste starts to be pretty nice.

Sometimes great, sometimes just good. Very hoppy but smooth. 300 IBU according to Short’s website.
