It's a dull, swampy brown beer--cloudy
and with a creamy head that had some admirable longevity. To my nose,
there are notes of tart citrus and resin. It's a sweet brew with a nice
emphasis on malt, particularly for the style. As for bitterness, this
manifests in politely resinous and tangy citrus elements. The label said
that there would be pine notes as well, but I didn't find any worth
writing about.
A touch on the sweet side, this
ale isn't perfect. However, it really is v. good. A bit of a unique
flavour in a world of very similar IPAs makes a beer memorable. I'd love
to get my hands on a few more of these beauties, but alas I only had
the one.
Rating: 8.0 out of 10.
