The beer was a nice dark amber color with a thick light tan colored head, decent retention with minor lacing.
Smell was all juniper hops.
Taste had a bit of noticeable rye, but was quickly overpowered by pine hops. They were clearly the dominant flavor with almost no noticeable malts even as the beer warmed. Very long bitter aftertaste.
Mouthfeel was light and thin with a bit of hoppy oilyness.
Overall it wasn't to bad, but a bit to unbalanced and one dimensional for my taste.
