Poured into a large tulip glass, it1pours from my growler a golden amber color. Quite hazy peering through it, 1cm head forms on top that eventually dissipates to a thin white surface with some cling to the glass.

Lots of cascade hops aroma slams my nose. This is a complete HOP BOMB! Some citrus scents come through as well (orange peel) but mostly a big, floral & mistletoe aroma comes through.

A bit hot on the tongue, the hops are apparent with a big chunk of pine and floral flavors! Wow! Just as with the nose, this is a hop bomb! Not very sweet, except a bit of the alcohol and citrus flavors come through w/ some slight rock candy to balance it on the swallow.

Great feel! No real burn from the alcohol, and it's hidden quite well. Medium to full body.

Overall experience is great! Nothing I can say about this that I don't like. Will be difficult to drink for hte next few hours as I watch the Ravens/Patriots in the AFC Championship game, but I will do my best! Cheers!!!!

3 week old bottle.

Pouring down the middle of a snifter reveals not much white head and a clear golden body.

Hops are the name of the game in the aroma. There is a slightly evident bready malt backbone and some alcohol vapors that mix well with the fruity hop aromas of orange, grapefruit, peach, mango and pine.

Fairly big bitterness here with prevalent grapefruit and resinous flavors. The hops linger in the aftertaste. Bready and sweet malt. Slight alcohol presence in the taste and warming sensation. Medium bodied and some lighter carbonation. A sipper of a beer for sure.
