Thanks to Skuter for sharing this one at his tasting.

Pours a hazy dark orange with a foamy beige head that settles to an oily film on top of the beer. Small streaks of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, herbal hops, and a slight funky and rotten aroma that fades over time. Taste is much the same without the funky/rotten element but there is an earthy and herbal finish. There is a mild hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty average beer with a weird smell but decent taste.

Poured from a 12 oz can into a standard pint.

A: Dark amber hue. Pours about a 1 finger, densely foamy, white head. Settles slowly. Never fully dissipates. I've opened several of these, and they always explode out of the can. I don't mean that in a bad way... they just have a really nice carbonation to them. Very thick, persistent, coating lacing.

S: Papery, crisp pine, and resin.

T: A very soft resiny hop with something of a very light woody character.

M: Really crisp. Fairly light body, but not washed-out.

D: Really easy drinking brew. Well-balanced.

Atmosphere is really nice. Dark hue, dense thick head, really heavy lacing. Nose is a little piney and a little resiny. Light and crisp resiny hop character with a touch of wood. Overall, this is a really good quaff.

Tin Roof Voodoo Bengal has a thick, frothy, cream-colored head, a mostly clear, amber appearance, streaming bubbles, and very thick lacing left on the glass. The aroma is faint, but one can detect some roasted malt, sweetness, and hop oil. Taste is of sweet malt, bread crust, bitter hops, and some light sugar. Mouthfeel is medium and slick, and Tin Roof Voodoo Bengal finishes mostly dry, refreshing, and drinkable. Overall, I think this is a delicious beer.

The beer pours a translucent copper orange, with continuous small bubble streams rising from the bottom of the glass. The head is a thick beige foam that sticks to the glass with good lacing while you drink.

Aroma is heavy with floral hops and citrus, and a hint of caramel/malt sweetness.

Voodoo Bengal has a classic pale ale taste. It has 4 different types of hops in it, and that's the flavor that hits you first. The beer also has a good sweet malt balance to it. There is a good hop bitterness to it at the finish.

A good tasting beer, but a bit thin feeling in your mouth, despite the moderate carbonation it has. It does lend itself to being a good session beer.

Overall, I certainly like it. Makes me wish I had a big plate of crawfish in front of me!

Amber in colour and very clean pour. Small amount of head retention. Smell light caramel, and citrus. The hop note is apparent on first sip, but leaves very quickly. Medium malt taste. All flavours balance well, this a more traditional rendition of a British Pale ale.

Thanks Evan!
