Hand bottle at home thanks to the Evil Empire ... amber no head ... nice sweet and juicy nose ... big bitter hop front ... rich resiny hops ... quite fruity ... little grapefruit ... quite drying ... very still cause of the hgand bottling and i think this beer suffers from that... i think the original carbonation would bring this beer to bright life... none the less quite tasty
