3.75/5  rDev -7.9%
look: 4.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.75
Picked up a single from the Craft Beer Hop Stop cooler 7-16-20 for $4.99. Canned in late June/early July; consumed 9-23-20.

Beer pour black with a very nice tan head that has some great hang time.

Nose is light cocoa and medium roasted malts.

Taste is very well balanced with the large roasted malt base throwing off some chocolate balanced nicely by the hop addition.

Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and lacking some oomph.

Overall not a bad effort from a primarily ipa maker. I appreciate the spirit of Goldwater for participating in the BIB initiative!
