3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Pacific Liquor: Poured a glowing yellow hue with thick amounts of sediment floating around while a creamy smooth white head blew up on top. Aroma is lively with quality malts and yeast and really has me salivating to take my first sip. The drink is bold with grainy malts and slight taste of alcohol and sort of reminded me of an imperial pilsner. Minor notes of sweetness but has somewhat of a harsh finish. Alcohol gives off a good buzz so it won me over in that sense.
