Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 7
Draught Medium yellow head over orange-gold beer, with a slight green shine. Very fresh greenery & hoppy nose, slightly grapey, raisins touch, but especially fresh hops - obviously USA hops. Grapey-hoppy, but with remarkable little bitterness. One problem: the flavours vanish almost instantly, leaving just a whiff of concentrated fruitjuicesweetness. Unexisting palate, rather light body. Pity about the ending, I can’t give marks for what doesn’t exist, can I? Aroma, OTOH is great. When you know about the grapejuice, one understands, but the Cascade hops blend in perfectly, hiding the fruitjuice until the unfortunate finish.
