Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

pours a dark brown almost black, but can see though with light in the back. Fluffy tan head. the aroma is grape fruit, and citrus. the flavor is roasty, but with lots of hop flavor and bitterness. the hops are rigth up front to the end, but the after taste is largely the roasted malt. the hops are grapefruit, citrus, and your normal american
Tap. Dark reddish copper, murky hue; slightly tan head. Resiny hop aromas with a big malt presence in the aroma. Slightly sweet at first, but some spicy and pine hops really dry it out and leave a lingering hop burn on the palate. Medium to thicker body and a little creamy.
Bottle. Dark brown, low cream.fruity, raisiny, light herbal hop. Roast start, herbal, light strawberry. Roast and grass aftertaste. Good chewiness, sparkly. Pleasant toasty brew.
