Nose is sticky berry and pine sap. Taste is stonefruit, blueberry, pear, peach rings, and chewy gum resin. Snappy mouthfeel. Mouth-drying bitterness. Well done.

Can poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass

A: Pours golden yellow with a frothy cream white head that settles to a firm layer and laces nicely.

S: Slightly dank Southern Hem diesel, grassy herbal notes, underlying exotic tropical, and stone fruit, a little ripe citrus, floral hints, slightly crackery biscuity malt, and a touch of light caramel sweetness.

T: Resinous pine, zesty citrus, grapefruit, lime, tangerine, and lemon, exotic, tropical and stone fruit, blueberry, pineapple, white grape, gooseberry, passion fruit, mango, peach, and guava, light floral notes, a bit grassy, Southern Hem diesel that starts to emerge more as it warms, crackery biscuity malt, and a touch of light caramel sweetness.

M: Medium body, moderate carbonation, absolutely no clue that it's 9%.

O: Definitely follows the same flavor profile as the OG Micro Blaster, thought with a couple notes are a bit more/less prominent here and there between the two. The big thing for me is how drinkable it is, just like the original, in this case maybe even more impressive given its size and how well it's hidden. I wish the fruity side came through in the nose a bit more, but that's about the only thing I'd change. I'm always worried that imperialized versions of great beers will lose the magic of the original, but this one is is a worthy big brother.
