Description
Since Arrogant Bastard Ale was first unleashed upon the unsuspecting public in 1997, the brand has been braving bold territory and upsetting dandies, milquetoasts and fizzy yellow beer drinkers in great numbers. Massively successful, and ever full of vip and vinegar, Arrogant Bastard Ale split off from the restrictive confines of Stone Brewing in 2015. And now, the brethren of Liquid Arrogance is free to explore, cavort and roam how they damn well see fit. For those Worthy few that wish to gaze upon the musings of Arrogant Bastard Ale, Double Bastard Ale, Bourbon Barrel-Aged Arrogant Bastard or other Bastard beers, follow along via Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Arrogantbastard.com.

Canned. Probably from Richmond. It was a yellow pilsner that was pretty good.

Poured a nice clear gold from tall boy. Grassy malts but some nice pilsner bitterness. Clean finish. Really great pilsner.

Bottled. Can’t believe I’ve never had this yet. Brown pour. Nice looking thin head. Nice hearty malty taste and dark fruits. Dry hop finish. Good stuff.

Man, trying to find this one to rate it without comprehending the intentional misspelling is v. difficult.

Draught (as lucky bastard, not basartd, hence the issue). Poured reddish brownish, strong hops aroma, pretty decent, mild alco burn. Ok.

Re-ratign after long and dignifed period of drinking ABA. Strong woody and hop notes make it a classic.

Bottle. Really dark brown with a nice two finger, tan head. Aroma and taste were lots of smoky peat with hints of ash and soap. It is just not for me.

Can, koszi Tomi! Pours clear, deep golden with white head. Nose is herbs, hoppy a bit peppery. Tastewise it’s moderately bitter, showing herbal-y hoppy notes. Light bodied with average carbo, easy to drink.
