Nectar imprisoned in a bottle. An anything-but-delicate blend of sharp hoppiness and fruity aroma, this beer is a life-changing backyard knife-fight for your palate. Fermented with a volcano-like Belgian yeast strain called “El Diablo,” Raging Bitch earned its polarizing name from the aggressively active nature of the yeast - unleashed, untamed, unbridled...and in heat.

Pours amber from the bottle. A frothy white crown turns creamy and lingers. Aroma is mango, yeasty, malty with caramel inflections. Taste is sweet up front, fruity, but turning rapidly bitter going into the finish. Full bodied, robust, dry with moderate carbonation. Overall a nicely balanced brew, a bit too heavy and alcoholic to really be called refreshing but eminently drinkable. Good stuff.

Bottle. Pours almost clear amber with a lasting off-white head leaving good lacing. Aroma of hop, caramel, sweet malt, fruit, biscuit and floral notes. Medium sweetness and moderate bitterness. Medium body, slight stickiness to texture, soft to average carbonation. Very good.
