Commercial Description:
When Phin and Matt sat down to collaborate on their new beer, they knew it had to be different if they were to call it extraordinary. "Let sprinkle it with fairy dust and wave our magic wands," said Phin. "No way," said Matt, "We've got to do better than that. This beer has to be better than any other in the galaxy." "Let's do some market research." So the two strapped on their rocket pack packs and traveled to the intergalactic beer store. After sampling an array of beers from acrossed the galaxy, the duo hit on an idea. "I've got it" exclaimed Matt, "we'll use vast amounts of whole hops, the finest malt, and put a little more love in every batch." "Eureka!" shouted Phin. And thus became a beer so fresh and tasty the duo put their names on it. 37 IBU's, 5.6% ABV

Bottle. Golden with a white head. Aroma of straw, fruit, honey and citrus. Quite straight up flavourwise - bread, malt, some sweeetness, freshly hopped with citrus impressions, a mellow palate and a nice bitter finish. Absolutely a good choice for a session beer.

Bottle at home. Clear golden coloured with a small white head. Fruity aroma of hops with notes of caramel and pine needles. Fruity flavour of hops and pine needles with notes of grape fruits. Hoppy finish. Guess it would be the perfect beer on a warm day.

Cloudy golden pour with a thin white head. The aroma has some hops and honeyish sweetness. Flavor of floral hops, malt and some honeyish sweetness. The body is light to medium with a creamy texture and soft carbonation.

Pours with a crystal clear, golden body topped by a medium thick head with good lacing. It’s slightly sweet yet bitter with piney and grassy hop notes and just the right amount of malt balance. Light to medium bodied, smooth and a touch dry.

Taste 2/9 Bottle. Clear golden body thin head. Aroma: Yeasty must and brite hops. Taste: Almost a cross between an ESB a Pilsner and a Pale ale. Spicy, yeasty and crisp. A little strange but no too bad.
