Bottle 233 of 1000. "Bottle Conditioned October 2012"
From the champagne style bottle into my Pretty Things Goblet, while watching the Super Bowl

Big "pop" and a fresh hops aroma as I open the bottle.
A - Pours reddish brown, but not cloudy. Light brown bubbles make a creamy head. Not the most attractive looking beer.
H - excellent fresh hops aroma - I can taste them in the smell.
Ravens ahead already...
T - hop bitterness, with a burnt malt taste. Almost like one of these "black IPAs". Not blown away by the hops. Decent balance. Hints of orange rind, banana? A little soapy as I drink more.
M - not as chewy as expected - thin, but crisp
O - a decent beer but I expected more out of an $18 bottle. No complaints, but would pick something else next time.
