Bodega, Brooklyn tap: pours black with a creamy tan head. Aroma is chocolate and roasted malts. Taste is somewhat sweet. Low bitterness. Not too substantial. Creamy, but pretty light. Kind of milky of whatever. Not bad.

Bottle from Daly’s Drinks, Boyle [211215] 7/4/8/4/15
Amber, soft haze, bubbly white head, good lacing
Aroma of sweet fruits, grapefruit, lemon, citrus zest, could pick up the aroma on removing the cap from a distance and it persisted...very good nose
Taste of grapefruit, bitter grapefruit zest, light fruits malt, lots of bitter zest hops, fresh hoppy, dab of grassy hop in there, strong flavour for abv
Palate - Medium carb, light body, bitter zest, clean. Finish is more bitter, strong bitter zest linger, refreshing
Overall - Lots of punch for 4.2%, seems to drink like a beer 1% higher. Like this a lot.
