ChainGangGuy (2523), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Feb 20, 2009 12 oz. bottle - $5.00 at Taco Mac in Kennesaw, Georgia.
Bottled During the 3rd Week of October.
Appearance: Pours a nearly clear, coppery body with, despite an enthusiastic pour, only a very thin, extremely short-lived, white head.
Smell: Faint notes of spicy, zesty Noble-type hops mixed with mild tones of crumbled, day-old biscuits. As it warms a bit, some light hints of fruit and flowers emerge.
Taste: Lightly biscuity malts with an equally light sweetness attached to it. Predominately spicy hop character, with a tiny bit of lemon zest, and an overall medium-low bitterness. Floral hints in the latter half. Finishes dry and a bit crisp.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium-high carbonation.
Drinkability: Reasonably tasty and drinkable with a thirst-quenchingly low ABV percentage. shadey (1496), Rochester, New York, USA Feb 18, 2009 12oz bottle from BOTW.
