While having the Manic Street Preachers on the Hi-Fi and the Kobalt Tools 400 on the TV it was time to review this wonderful brew . Poured into my Spaten seidel , nice thick off white head and a clear amber head . Taste is a combo of pine and peppery . There is no alcohol burn / feel to this brew at all which makes drinkability great but also scary . Drinkability also may take a hit due to price point from store to store . Gouge maybe ? This beer is a joy to drink . Hoppy and smooth . By far Troegs best brew .

4.23/5 rDev -3.6%

Started in a cold English dimpled pint glass and allowed to warm over 30 minutes of tasting.
A pleasing warm amber-orange color; rather weak retention that was partly but not completely due to the cold.
Aroma brings to mind a copper-dipped pine cone nestled in clover and dandelion.
Taste experience is a little short, overall, but builds up to a bitter burst from a foundation of caramel-smoked hemp. There is a nutty nose blended in the back half of the flavor that I just can't place...
It sits heavy on the middle of the tongue, but falls off the sides quickly into an almost tannic sort of creaminess.
There's more length on draught than out of the bottle.
Overall, it's one of the best regularly available consistent products from a favorite independent brewery.
