4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 hopscotch (7288) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - DEC 10, 2007
Bottle… O-Town Throwdown Part Tres… This beer rocks!… Murky, prune-colored ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Light molasses and overripe apple essences to go along with lots of dark fruit esters, phenols and malts. Sweet, dark fruit and light molasses flavor also offers mild bitterness for a semblance of balance. Full-bodied with moderate carbonation. Coarse, dark fruit finish. Thanks go out to Dickinsonbeer for sharing this world class Quad!
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 hopdog (6943) - Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 7, 2007
22oz bottle. Poured a dark and deep amber color with a small sized off white head. Aromas of dark fruits, yeast, and some caramel. Tastes of dark fruits, citrus, caramel, chocolate, roast, and yeast. Some alcohol in the finish but not 11.8%. I’ll have to see how aging affects this (I’m glad I have a bunch more in the cellar!).
