Ghost Town Brewing 2020

Just got another case from ghost town. The wet hop is on point. I'm super interested in their mild and have inordinately high hopes for the festbier.

Love the hops

 

Just placed my first order for Ghost Town.

Went with 4-packs of Green Fiend, Hymn of Nelson, Awaken, and a mixed 4-pack of Witching Hour, Idealist, Death Blow, and Power Nap. Looking forward to finally trying some!

I also bought the Cellarmaker 4x4 anniversary case so next week should be fun. And also I should stop buying beer.

 

Just cracking into a Hymn of Nelson. Super nice white wine character up front and a ridiculous diesel and grape skin aftertaste that just lingers and lingers. Just what I was hoping for.

 

Man, Ossuary is a great porter. Robust indeed!

 

Anyone tried Witching Hour? Thoughts?

 

I picked up some cans and was really impressed. Not too sweet, but definitely could taste the chocolate and nuts and well integrated barrel. Hoping it sticks around and that future barrel-aged stuff starts coming out!

 

It's pretty damn good, especially for the price. A little too much "dark fruit/cherry" thing for me (I prefer roasty/chocolate notes in stouts) but it's not super sweet and pastry like many modern BA stouts. I picked up a second can after drinking my first.
