| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 21, 2009 Dry hopped version at the 2009 MiBGWF: Deep coppery hue with a very good lasting head and sticky lace. It appears that this brewer knows how to make an appearance. The aroma has notes of citric fruits, minerals, grassy and resiny vapours and a hint of biscuit. The taste is juicy fruit where the Cascade hop really shines. Mild malt background and a astringent mineral finish. The mouth feel is smooth and refined but is a tad brash around the edges, very good medium body for the style. Well done all around and beer geek worthy, a hop forward brew indeed. tjthresh (1780), Greenfield, Indiana, USA

Poured hazy copper color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate sour citrus hoppy aroma. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Medium bitter flavor with a medium bitter finish of moderate duration.
This is a good drinkable beer.
