Brutal bitter is a imperial bitter and one of the original hazy beers that dates back more than 20 years. Brewed and dry hopped with 100% Rogue Farms Alluvial hops that exhibit flavors and aromas of peach (no fruit added). The malt adds good structure, some nuttiness and provides a deep golden hue.

Bottle. Aroma is empathically hoppy, citrusy orange American hops. Hazy orange colour. Taste is nicely balanced. Strong hoppy bitterness balanced with background caramel malt. Orange flavour, orange peel. Easily drinkable, relatively full body. Full of flavour. Very good beer.

Bottle @ home. Clear amber with a small to medium sized white head. Smells fresh, hops, pine and fruity. Tastes bitter, very fresh, very hoppy, a hint of pine and not sticky sweet at all. Medium body, nice crisp carbo.

Really nice aroma with fresh malt and also floral hop. It’s quite smooth and creamy with a nice hop balance. Light floral, pine and just a bit of tropical fruit too.
