Description
It all started with a humble homebrew kit and the drive to make better beer. Tired of the same bland and dated choices everywhere, Air Force friends Eric Wallace and Dick Doore set out to make the kind of beer that excited them; beer they wanted to drink. A hobby quickly became an obsession and it wasn't long before Left Hand Brewing opened for business on January 22, 1994. Left Hand has steadily increased its production, making the Brewers Association’s Top 50 Craft Brewers list in 2012.

Aromas are mainly mild mango with a little malt and guava. Flavors are similar to nose with mango coming on much stronger. Bittersweet going to a mildly sweet finish. Nitro is not an enhancement.

Pounder can with a widget inside. Yes, this is one beautiful pour! Black, large and in charge with choco moose head that never fades. Nice chocolate malt nose. Of course, this is totally flat, and I typically don't like flat beers but this one has some positive attributes. The uptake is smooth and very gentleman-like with good body and nothing watered down. Some chocolate taste on dark malt, with just a hint of tartness. Been a while since I had a nitro tout but this is certainly just like what you'd get out of a nitro tap. Mellow, smooth, easy, with solid non offensive dry stout character. I just help thinking how much better this would be if it had some good cutting co2.
