Jun 10, 2006 If you’re a hop-head, this is the beer for you. The hops in this beer will pick you up by the waist of your pants, take you to the parking lot, and kick your rear end into Lake Michigan.
Overpowering hop flavor. Wicked hop aftertaste. The best is watching people take a sample of the Drunken Toad and grimacing.

Jun 9, 2006 Tap at brewery and served in a 10.5 ounce glass: Hazed coppery hue with a small but lasting frothy head and good lace. The aroma has notes of grassy and piney hops, bready and slight caramel malt, grapefruit and apple, and a touch dusty yeast esters. The taste is surprisingly bitter and citric, this must be dry-hopped. As is the case with most small beer, there is little depth and only a hint of biscuity malt. The mouth feel is very dry and almost woody-like or astringent finish, light and lively overall. Okay beer that is almost too bitter, ESB in some respects.
