ghawener (582), San Salvador, El Salvador May 9, 2008 Bottle: One of the samples at the RateBeerians San Salvador tasting session. More on the IPA side but still a good brew. Ramenen (266), San Salvador, El Salvador May 9, 2008 Thanks to pollo and drank it at his house. Pours a very light golden with white head. Medium bodied, well balanced of spices and a great hoppy finish. Cobra (997), In the snake pit, Maryland, USA May 9, 2008 750 ml. brown Belgian bottle. Corked and caged. No freshness date seen.
Poured out a hazy tangerine color, with a thin tan head. Aromas are of Noble hops, earthy & sweet. Sweet malts, along with citrus round out the aromas. Flavors include citrus, earthy hops, some barnyard and damp basement. Medium mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Smooth and silky on the palate. Finished somewhat dry & minerally. santoslhalper (115), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA May 9, 2008 Thanks to Naka for sharing. Clear gold body with thin, soapy white head. Smells hoppy and spicy with ginger, bread, clove, sweet, buttery, pepper and coriander notes. Crisp spicy toast, with bread, floral, butter, herbal and sweet notes. Hoppy as a muffuca.. Meh. Nate (2091), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA May 9, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Naka. Fruity nose. Brett, dusty barnyard, light horseblanket. Bit of sourness and light bitterness, too. Overall, a mild nose. Medium golden amber, clear without the dregs, with light off-white lacing head. Medium body with light carbonation. Starts fairly dry with decent bitterness. Good hoppy quality and grainy wheat character. Funky taste in there, too. Nice, but not overly exciting. Bitter dry hop finish with medium bitter after.
