S: resinous hops, grassy, yeasty cracker crust.
T: SN malt center and backbone, sweet and spicy hops, pine resin, light honey, black tea, quite bitter.
F: lightly crunchy, oily and dry in the finish.
O: A fantastic tasting American ale that is very bitter and hop forward. Excellent in it's style.

Was amber in color. Nice carbonation. Hops started out nice but finish was blah. I would not get this again.
