Taster at the Half Acre taproom. Tan beer with a thin ring of foam. Deep choclate smell, kind of carried away by the roasty malt. More roasty stout in the taste. Pretty dry, and seems lighter in alcohol than even the claimed amount.

$3 taster at Half Acre’s tap room. Dark brown color, a bit hazy, with a thin head. Big buttload of what I thought were Amarillo hops, more fool me. Piney in the main, but allowing some tropical fruit to to appear too. In fact, with the malt added in, the big hop comes in almost like a fruity candy. Yes, very sweet, and too rich.

Enjoyed in a wine glass very cold. Nice lacing, burnt orange in appearance. Nose is very clean! Very wheatier, lots of Citra and Simcoe. Nice grassiness. Can’t smell the increased ABV at all. Taste is really nice. Uber drinkable, grassy and full of lemon and pine needles. A bit of astringency at the finish. Exceptionally balanced though.

Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of kristina. Pours a clear reddish brown with a small, off-white head. Sweet nutty nose with somewhat greasy hops. Medium body, burned caramel, nuts and again somewhat greasy hops not adding all that much bitterness. But quite a pleasant Imperial Brown. 150313
