1.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 5/20 Beerniverous (5) - - APR 27, 2012 does not count
I couldn’t pronounce the name of the beer before or after it assaulted my tongue with its hasty but seductive penetration of my mouth. I enjoyed the picture on the bottle as once you cleared three quarters of the bottle out, it started to look like Drew Barrymore and that was acceptable.
The head if poured correctly can be compared to the luminescent glow of Hiroshima. The smell reminded me of shooting pellet guns at birds, no mistaking the pure C02 smell from experience.
Like most things that involve a mouse dressed up in red suit acting like a pirate, you really cant trust where the night will go.
