3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 JCB (3094) - Durham, North Carolina, USA - NOV 9, 2010
On tap at Rogue Brewpub, North Beach, SF. Handsome pour, very pale gold with a frothy head, could almost pass for a pils in appearance before the sumptuous dry hoppy aroma invites you in. Medium carbonation and a pleasantly lively mouthfeel. The flavor is pretty appealing in its complexity, given the style and ABV, and the dry finish was really very nice. Crisp and refreshing rather than resinous and dank. Went down well.
