adamjackson\u00a0(912)<\/a>\u00a0– Canaan, New Hampshire, USA – FEB 5, 2013<\/small><\/p>\n

Acquired in a trade. Enjoyed at fridge temperature in a tulipA – Murky reddish brown, nice stout-like 3 finger tan head formed and reduced to half a finger pretty fast.<\/p>\n

S – Very hop forward and dry hopped on the nose. chinook and simcoe and centennial. Lots of grapefruit and pine needles.<\/p>\n

T – Nice up front clean and bright bitterness followed by an english malt backbone but finishes with a thump like stale water from a week old thermos. Sort of a candied sugar taste as it lingers around.<\/p>\n

M – Almost a heavy body and drinks like a 9%+ ABV beer.<\/p>\n

O – I love the nose and up front taste this beer delivers but it\u2019s a thud of a finish.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
