2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Foxbush (761) - Richmond, USA - JUL 16, 2011
UPDATED: JUL 25, 2011 This was tasted at a luncheon meeting at The Pub. I was taken there to taste some microbrews. The APA was yellow in color with a smallish head. There was some bitterness of extra hops. The ale lacked body. It just seemed to be too thin. Smooth finish but not much to cheer about. I hope they will work on the ale. I will try later in the year.
