On tap at the brewpub. Poured a slightly hazy orange with a slight amber hue and a white head that dissipated slowly to the edges and laced nicely. Aroma had a good amount of hops with a hint of pine and a pretty strong grain backbone. Flavor began with some pine hops but mellowed in to more of a grain and hay finish.

Draft sample at MBGWF12. Poured dark copper color with an average frothy off-white head that lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate floral hop aroma. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Moderate floral bittersweet flavor with a moderate bittersweet finish of medium duration. This beer met my expectations.

On tap at the Brew Pub. The Hopicidal is a series all done with a single hop variety. This one brewed with just Glacier hops. Poured an amber color with a small sized head. Some earthiness, pine, and some citrus.
