Pounder from Archetype. 9.28.23, A little lazy with the what's in the fridge. Pint glass @home while making dinner. Clear, honey gold, tall cloud of off white head. Herbal hops, saline & buttery cracker nose. Very peppery upfront. Bittersweet, prickly herbal, salty crackers. More acid-y & thinner than expected. Stiff & classically bitter finish is nice. A little dry mouth. Light spice & noticeable clove near the finish keeps me from loving it. Very solid+.
