Growler thanks to beastiefan2k, the trivia master and master of the world. The color of this beer is a dark brown and murky. It pours with a big head and a sticky lacing (all over the glass). Aroma is hoppy (what a surprise) sweet, resin-y, oily, citrus and pine. In general sweet, strong, and yummy. Taste is less interesting on these aspects, a bit empty for me actually. The mouthfeel is actually a bit fuzzy, no not fizzy but fuzzy.

Thanks to beastiefan2k for sharing the growler (and leaving the leftovers at our place, which I am currently consuming) - hazy red-brown beer, with a small ring of lace - strong piny hop aroma, with an undercurrent of brown sugar and nutmeg - a nice balance of strong dry hop flavor, and sweet caramel malt flavor - some light fruity character brings with it a slight tartness - some subtle spicy character - just slightly different for a sixpoint beer, but not by much - tasty, though.
