motelpogo (4111), Plzen, Czech Republic Mar 27, 2008 bottled, many thanks to mullet - i’m glad that this wasn’t the beer that leaked in his backpack, although that one still turned out alright. bright amber, slim but steady head, aroma of butterscotch and menthol, plenty of cookie doughiness and caramel, some fruit salad and plenty of bitterness. quality stuff
Spesh1 (14), , Australia Jul 22, 2008 Appearance great
malt sweetness too high.
Out of balance.
Not bad but disappointed. Will try again in a few months because I usually over score the rate beer average. Lunkie (1006), Glen Iris, Australia May 17, 2008 Sweet malt hop aroma with fruit. Clear brown colour with good head and lacing. Sweet malt flavour. Smooth palate. Bragesnak (974), Aarhus, Denmark Mar 29, 2008 Melbpurne, Australia
Bottled
Malty caramel but dominated by hops
Floral and aroma is hopped - odd but OK nate2g (49), Brisbane, Australia Mar 28, 2008 Updated: Mar 29, 2008First tried this local IPA a year ago with a pack of other smaller brewers. Bottled, pours a bright amber with an off-white head. The initial aroma is clearly that of hops, malt and pleasant fruity notes. Sweet and hoppy flavour, I was impressed with the balance of this one, bitter finish and easy to enjoy. The Beast is a good quality IPA.
