Napoleon Complex is a small-statured pale ale with a larger-than-life attitude. Ignoring the industry standard of diminutive hop presence and mild manner, this pale ale will have most IPA’s contemplating their inadequacy. Little beer, big flavor, even bigger ego.

Pours a bright, clear deep gold producing 2+ fingers of frothy, moderately lasting, white head that leaves a narrow finger of webby lacing above a thin cap and collar. A respectable level of effervesce streams from the bottom. Aroma is a bit delicate, certainly not forceful, being an orange forward citrus blend of fruit and zest; thin tropical and earthy floral with faint pine all mixed in a bready caramel malt background. Taste is orange, grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach and pine with caramel and biscuit, herbal, floral and grassy earthiness. Finishes with moderate hints of earthy pine and grassy bitterness. Aftertaste is an earthy bitterness. Mouthfeel is a light-medium bodied with moderate carbonation and body; smooth but a little grainy and lightly dry. Overall it has decent complexity, a nice balance of diverse hop notes and moderate bready malt flavors with a pleasant balance of malt and bitterness.

Pours a golden amber with no head. It smells hoppy and very good. Tastes good and not as strong hoppy as it smells. Pretty smooth beer. Overall this is a good beer. Best by date on 16 ounce can 11/23/2019.
