Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a hazy golden body and a large white head. Aroma is hoppy (makes me happy), tangerine, grassy, a bit of windex. Taste is also very hoppy, tangerine, pine and grassy. Light bubbles, excellent pale!

Deep ruby color, small beige head. Toffeish, caramelly aroma. Caramelly, some rye-bread, citrusy hops, late bitterness. Some kind of brown ale?

Bottled (brewed at Sand Creek Brewing, WI) at Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm. Mahogany colour, rich head. Cardboard aroma. Sweet fruity and well rounded. Mildly syrupy with primitive crystal malt covered in too thin layers of floral hops to hide the severe shortcomings. Light resiny bitterness. Pointless wishy-washy pseudo-micro showcasing only cardbaord and resin.

Beer #39 of 42 at GTMW, 8-8-09. Getting very tired, it’s near the end of the drinking session. Dark, cloudy yellow color, big thick head. Smell has a lot of hops to it. Taste is a lot of fresh hops. Not dry-hopped or anything, I think, just very well hopped-up. Great effort for the first Half Acre beer I’ve been able to taste.
Beer #8 at MWBF, Aug. 2011. Draft pour. Hazy yellow pale ale, nice little foaminess to it. Very big catbox smell, which is how we like it. Very big, hoppy beer. Goes down very nicely.
