Stoked to try this! Poured into a Hill Farmstead Glass. 2012 Vintage. No bottling date.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A &#8211; SRM of 25, amber brown appearance. Lots of clouds \/ haze in this glass. Just a minor head. Very little head. minor bit of alcohol legs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; Not the hop profile I was expecting. Very mild Centennial and maybe Amarillo hops. Great citrus and pine explosion. Bit of honey \/ sugary sweet malts. Minor grassiness or fresh cut lawn scent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Wow. Okay, not much aromatic hops but huge hop explosion all over the place. Bitterness is so high that there\u2019s almost a sweetness to it like kiwi or mango juice. Of course, nice floral and citrus taste, There\u2019s a bit of lemon zest and slight lemonheads sourness but it\u2019s barely there.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; 90\/10 carbonation on mouth swish. Heavy bodied, lingering grapefruit juice taste\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; Wow. This is fantastic.
