Great Lakes Lake Erie Monster
12oz bottle, grabbed a 4-pack at Woodmans for about $9 a week ago appearance: cool label, served in my delirium chalice - bright orange body with a foamy white cap and a light ring of bubbly beige lace left behind...obviously unfiltered smell: nose is pretty restrained - tea-like hops, caramel, toasted biscuit taste: high bitterness - grapefruit rind, caramel sweetness, tea, toffee, a touch boozy, biscuity malts. Kind of dissapointing effort from Great Lakes - way too sweet, bitterness is high but you dont get the corresponding bright hop flavour to go with it mouthfeel: sweet, bitter drinkability: ok
