Round, earthy aroma with hints of herbs and faint must. Soft, tight carbonation. Lovely noble hop flavors alongside the typical floral, bitter leaf textures. Finishes earthy and yeasty with coarse bitter notes. This is sure to satisfy a noble hop craving, chock-full of Spalt, Saaz, and Hallertau. cb (809), Wheat Ridge, Colorado, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 26, 2003 I really love the concept of a "lawnmower" beer having over 8% ABV. The clear golden color would trick most into thinking Bush Hog was a sissy, 3.5% lite crap beer. Not this crazy-hoppy (esp after warming past room temp.) Very refreshing citric yeast texture and flavor. Will have to get a growler of this before they run out! smoosh (523), New Albany, Indiana, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 20, 2003 Updated: Jul 26, 2003Draft Only: A deep, dark yellow with a medium white head. This beer is right up my alley! 86 IBU's in a big, balanced brew - reminds me of Arrogant Bastard in its mix of malt and hops. Each swallow was somehow different. One hoppy, one malty and one sweet. This is an excellent beer and hopefully one that they keep around!
