mattberan says Average Beer
March 8th, 2008
I was expecting a bit more (last time I read the reviews here before tasting). This is what I’d call a very classic beer. The hops are strong, but I can’t quite place what kind they are (something I’m trying to do more and more). The carbonation is a bit low and the malt very very mild. Classic Ale flavor. P.S. Boo to twist offs again. But yay that I bought a six pack, good ale.
