bmackenzie (39), Wellington, New Zealand Jan 5, 2007 Updated: Jan 23, 2007 Bottle from Regional. Nice fresh one!
Resin of fresh hops comes thru in the aroma, it’s like smelling a bag of hops, slightly dusty which i haven’t got before, grapefruit, lemon, lots of grassiness.
Dry non-dextrinous beer, with a soft malt and bittereness at the start. Fruit and hopiness of those brilliant American hops, grapefruit -lemon, a little spice and
long pleasant lingering bitterness

Aroma is stronge grapefruit,rose petal with some fruity esters.Classic USA cascade hop qualities. Grapefruit,rose petal hop flavour balanced with a clean crystal/caramalt background finishing with a clean bitterness.
Overall a good beer, a slight increase in bitterness would make it very good. Well brewed with no technical faults. yespr (7817), Copenhagen O, Denmark Sep 11, 2008 33 cL bottle.
