look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Poured from a 12 fl oz bottle into a large snifter.

Ruby amber color with two finger thick off-white head that fades to a small layer. Good lacing. High number of bubbles. Hazy appearance.

Aroma is full of dry hopping with a certain kind of hop profile used that is distinctive. Piney, resiny and slightly floral aroma. I like it. Very suppressed malt, caramel aroma.

Taste: Hop forward. Malt is quite suppressed for a semi-dry bitter finish. Lingering bitterness that is yet again distinctive.

Mouth feel : Medium to slightly oily feel. High on carbonation that contributes to some astringency along with dry hopping.

Drinks like an IPA just for color and little caramel .

Style Rate: 4
Personal Rate: 4

Low on alcohol but still a good ale. I like it.

Had this one a while ago and will have another for sure next chance I get.

Nice sweet smooth start with hints of a caramel flavour but it finished with a bitter slight smokey flavour. Nothing overpowering at all just a nice touch as far as I'm concerned.

I had it from a Key Keg so it may have poured slightly "flatter" than a traditional keg.

Overall a great pint that I look forward to trying again.

From Jim's, no BB.

Looks the biz on the pour, with a lovely fluffy two to three finger head, but after that all downhill.

Aromas are malt mainly, but the taste is just, erm, not nice. Dry hopped I guess means a dry dry tasting beer, which just does not suit this palate. It's thin and watery, too.

How else can you score a beer, if you genuinely do not actually like the taste??.

Maybe it's the yeast...
