4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 andyhwcinc (807) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - AUG 8, 2010
Picked this up while hanging out in Warsaw, IN, a town 3 hrs away from Chicago that I’m happy to say distributes this brewery’s fantastic beers that I only wish I could get in Chicago. This stuff is awesome. Very frothy head, fantastic aromas heavy on the hops but also has a nice nutty smell. Fantastic orange citrus notes, apparently hoppy but not too much to the point where it’s overtly bitter. Incredibly smooth to drink.
