Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale
Purchased from Blue Max Liquors in Burnsville, MN. This is the 2006 vintage, tasted 11/28/09. Pours a light copper body with a rocky golden-white head. Aroma is lightly toasted malt and grassy hops. Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with spicy malt flavors and sticky, teeth coating hops that produce a long finish that eventually dries out your mouth. I can only imagine how bright the hop flavors might have been from a fresh bottle, but the flavors held up well over 3 years.
