Bottle shared by Drew at Ale Alpharetta. Pours a light orange, with a small, bubbly, off-white head. The aroma is earth, leather, some light oak, and predominantly floral hops. Significantly bitter, with a faint mineral and funk. Medium body, thick, and sticky. This is fair, but something was a little off in the flavor.

Bomber from Bestway, which has hosted the largest Olde Hickory selection I’ve seen anywhere, so its cool to see that the brewery appreciates them. Pours a hazy pale amber color with a large frothy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of doughy malts, citrus and floral hops and mild wood notes. The taste is herbal, citrus, resin hops, doughly malts, oak in the finish with a tiny bit of vanilla. Medium bodied, lingering bitterness. Nice beer.
