    Southern Prohibition Brewing
    Crowd Control Imperial IPA

    Light hazy gold color, bountiful white cap with good lacing.

    Aroma of citrus hops first, rather dense hop aroma giving off notes of grapefruit zest, lemon oil, woodsy, earthy and a brightness that seems spicy but really isn't spicy. Good depth to the hops but little malt apparent.

    The malt contributes mostly to the body and as a carrier for the hops which it does rather well serving as a launch platform rather than substantially contributing to the flavor. Good integration of taste sensations here, fairly complex. No alcohol apparent, clean finish with lingering hop aftertaste.

    Texture: Medium to full.

    Overall good product here which starts with a sense of complexity and carries that through the end. This is an Imperial style (8%) with a big hop wallop and the feeling you're drinking something substantial that isn't overwhelming. Strength with restraint yet satisfying. Easy to enjoy more than one but if you're going to session this Bad Boy plan to stay put.

    Cheddar and chive biscuits with tomato onion jam, eggs, and bacon, with Saison Dupont. One of the best breakfasts ever.

    Head Hunter IPA while we relax out front before the heat comes. What a phenomenal ride by Pogacar to win today's epic, 130 mile, 5 mountain, stage 15 In the Giro d'Italia.

    Amazing beer that @turfy sent to me
    [​IMG]

    4.32/5 rDev +1.4%
    look: 4.5 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.75 | overall: 4.25
    From a 16oz can packaged on 05/31/23

    Nice pink color. I am not a wine drinker but it looks like a Rose wine color. The beer is somewhat murky looking overall. There's a small amount of carbonation rising in the glass. The head that forms is a 2 finger very slightly off white head. Frothy and fluffy looking with mostly small bubbles. Retention is good, and there's some sticky, clingy looking lacing on the glass.
    The aroma is very funky and tart smelling. The cherry aroma is tart smelling. There's a slight grassy aroma to this beer. Somewhat earthy smelling.
    Taste - wow! The main flavor is cherry and it is mostly tart, though, a slight hint of sweetness does come through. This beer has a slight grassy and earthy undertone.
    The body is good and full. The mouthfeel is bubbly. The tart feeling just lingers and clings in my throat. the finish is somewhat dry.
    Damn delicious beer and an honor to try.

    Oh hey there. How's she goin'? Time to belly up to the VB. I gotta free up these Tucher Helles. Damn good German beer. <> Supposed to get loads of rain here in the next few days. So much different than last year that it's shocking. Cheers! BAs

    My wyfe always wants to save an Oak Groot each year for replanting somewhere else. We have hundreds of Black Walnut, Red & Black Oak, Butternut (White Walnut), Black Cherry, and of course Silver Maple seedlings every spring.

    Ein Bitburger. Normally this sophisticated pilsner calls for a thin glass.
    Cheers all!

    Cheers. My dad bought it but it ended up being too heavy for him, to be fair it's quite heavy even when it's empty.
