GBBF Cask. Hazy amber beer, suddy pale tan head. Smooth palate, semi dry. Good fresh tasting hops. They border on that ’stinging’ sensation that you get from very fresh hops. Bitter citrus. Malt backbone supports well. Finishes semi dry with a mildly bitter aftertaste.

Massive sweet sticky aroma. Plasticky and sweet in the mouth. Some stickiness is over the top. Not bad, but too sweet. Finish very mashy. A bit underattenuated, that most common of US traits, alas.

Special thanks to Ginny for buying this growler on vacation and keeping it cold back to Pittsburgh. The beer stayed fresh, and poured with nice co2 and foaming head. Great IPA! Well balanced, initial hop taste, medium body and hop/bitter finish. Nice flavor, right on style for an IPA. Today, I will finish that growler! Cheapdark, there is more where that came from!!
