Commercial Description:
When Phin and Matt sat down to collaborate on their new beer, they knew it had to be different if they were to call it extraordinary. "Let sprinkle it with fairy dust and wave our magic wands," said Phin. "No way," said Matt, "We've got to do better than that. This beer has to be better than any other in the galaxy." "Let's do some market research." So the two strapped on their rocket pack packs and traveled to the intergalactic beer store. After sampling an array of beers from acrossed the galaxy, the duo hit on an idea. "I've got it" exclaimed Matt, "we'll use vast amounts of whole hops, the finest malt, and put a little more love in every batch." "Eureka!" shouted Phin. And thus became a beer so fresh and tasty the duo put their names on it. 37 IBU's, 5.6% ABV

Bottle. Pretty good, good balance between malt and hops. It was quite sweet, yet bitter enough to offset it. Not much for appearence, small head that fades away and small lacing.

Bottle sampled. Pours golden with a good size white head. Aroma of caramel malts, citrus, and fruit. The flavor is sweet, fruit, caramel, citrus, and hoppy bitterness.

12oz bottle. Gold colored body. Pretty nice fruity, oily hop nose, with honey and lemon grass notes. Actually has a really nice, mellow palate, vinuous but not thick. Fresh and sticky, fizzing out in the slick, oily finish which tastes of hop and pine resin. Good stuff. Another pale ale that goes into the everyday drinking rotation.

Poured from bottle. Deep golden color. Aroma of grapefruit and hops. Taste leaned more to an IPA to me...With hints of grapefruit, pepper and hops. A bit lackluster and watery to my palate.

Fantastic citrus hop nose and floral hoppy flavor. Well balanced with just right amount of malt.

My kind of Pale Ale. Dry and hoppy. Great drinkability. The beer displays the hop in flavor, aroma, and bitterness very well. I think I’ll be drinking a few of these this summer.

Dark straw pour with 1-finger or so off-white head. Aroma of fresh lemongrassy hops, malt, slight fruit and peppery notes. Tastes hoppy, citric, with a balanced malt bill and some peppery floraql notes at culmination. Nicely done.
