12 oz. bottle, says Lake Tahoe Brewing Co. on it, but it also says it is brewed by Mammoth, so I'm putting it here since the Lake Tahoe Brewery is closed, picked up at Hi-Time,
A: Very impressive, clear red colour, with a firm white head that lasts forever, with some nice lace.
S: Sweet caramel, treacle with some earthy hops.
T: Good caramel, but the grungy strange hop flavour takes over too much. Raw and earthy, the same problem I had with Epic.
M: Solid, creamy and silky, medium-bodied.
D: This is OK, but I'm not buying it again, I don't like the hop profile, there are better efforts out of MammothCo.
