Brutal Bitter Ale
Pours a cloudy orange colored ale with a tan head that disappears fairly quickly. Smell is sweet malt and spicy yeast with a faint scent of pine, citrus and tea. Taste is a bit malty and quite full of herbal hop flavor from the very start. Faint flavor of pineapple and vanilla at first and then the hops take over. Flavors of pine and citrus and tea. Somewhat astringent, this beer is all about hops. Mouthfeel is good. Tasty beer that is highly hopped but never goes too far. Still I don't know that I would spend $6 to drink this one again.
