Served on draft at the brewery. Pours a slightly hazy medium amber color with a moderate creamy head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of caramel, banana and resiny floral hops. Quite nice. Taste is very, very bitter hops with notes of pine and resin as well as alcohol. As the beer warms faint notes emerge of caramel, banana, caramelized sugar and chili powder. The hops are pretty astringently bitter which overwhelms most everything else. Medium-full bodied.
