The name pretty much says it all. Brewed with El Dorado hops, this is 4.7% abv with 41 IBUs. It’s also the most expensive 32oz fill I’ve ever purchased, at $9.99. It seems Bennedito’s has a really high opinion of their beers. This could well be the last time I take one of theirs home as well as the first.

Poured into a Summer’s Here Brewfest pint glass, this had pretty good clarity, with a golden amber color, and a decent sized off-white head that left a certain amount of spotty lace.

Light, floral hop scent, with a sweet malt aroma not too far behind.

Again, restrained hop flavor takes the lead, with a well balanced malty backbone. No flavor bomb, but eminently drinkable.

Medium bodied, with a lightly oily mouthfeel.

A good session beer to have with a sandwich at Bennedito’s, but not something to tear heaven and earth up to obtain – and not worth what I paid to get a somewhat amateurish fill that kinda left a fair amount of room in the grunt with air rather than beer. Drink it there, don’t take it home.
