3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 coldbrewky (1158) - Saugerties, USA - OCT 18, 2011
On tap repeatedly at the brewpub. A solidly put together beer. I must state that it is quite the honor to have a beer named after you. I was just looking for a home of r my hop harvest as my out of control hobby provided this year like none previous. A crisp bright amber in the glass. Thick tan head settles fast. Light hop nose. Central cereal tone with moderate malts and more hops than I thought needed to provide the 30-40 IBU. Centennial and chinook provide a nice grapefruit pine heat. I have scientifically proven through rigorous repetition that this beer is a solid all day drinker.

Medium statured offwhite head with good retention and lacing. Brite, copper orange hued ale. Nose is fruity, lil peach, citrus and light pine. Lightly medium in body, crisp and gently prickly carbonation, lightly oily. Lightly sweet malts, hint of caramel, light graininess with fairly well balanced citrusy, leafy hop notes, piney also. Fairly dry finish with a soft bite and a little resin. Nice APA, easy drinkin. Props to my friend coldbrewky for the growler! Not to mention that Steve (coldbrewky) is also the supplier/grower of the locally grown hops used in this fine libation! Cheers to stevely on his hop farming skills! Not to mention the brow beating skills he used in getting them to use his hops and his name in this beer! Yer da man Steve! Fekkin Newyawker! Hop farm on my friend!
