Amber, stale c hop nose and flavour. Slightly sticky malts. Gotta tighten up that supply chain, get some fresher hops on this.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright golden color with a huge creamy yellow-white head that lingered and left great lacing. The aroma was tangy, yeasty and bready with a bit of pine and vague fruity hops. The flavor was tangy, sweetish and malty with a bit of pine and sulfur. Medium length finish. Medium body. Meh.

From a tap at eh bocktwon, nice place. Nice big glass. Golden and clear. Scummy head and one taste lets you know this is no well behved lager. This is lagers answer to double ipa. Barely any aroma. But the first taste is big smacking dull hops, not in little pointed jabs but a wave of rude dull bitterness. Nice lacing. Yes, borders on rude ipa fer sure. High hopped kicking lager, will not let go. not like a sharp pilser, more like ipa mixed with hoppy lager. Not impressed. What ever happened that gentle and well behaved Mr Straub? Wew, old warm green grapefruit rind sensations. Nasty rototilling Nellie, gave my mouth 40 whacks.
