Draft pour pint at Hop and Hound, for Hellbent brewers night. I could travel 3 miles South from home and have this at the source, or 3 miles North, to have it while the brewer is here himself, drinking the same beer. Life is full of difficult, important decisions. Which side of a rock does moss grow? Anyway, pours a hazy copper color with a rocky head. I know this is borderline imperial statistics wise, but it has the full body and flavor of an imperial, and maybe then some. Packs a punch. Huge range of citrus, and bold bitterness. Carb bite up front, with a smooth finish. Lots and lots of hop goodness. Delicious. This beer deserves an imperial tag, even if the numbers don’t qualify it. Who says a quarterback can’t succeed in the NFL, if they are under 6 feet tall? Beast of a beer here, and damn good. Don’t test this anymore. Make it official.
