COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This superhumanly balanced brew blasts the tastebuds with a shot of hops then closes with a polished malty finish. Its intricate harmony between hop and malt was only achieved through years of intense training. Many have tried to mimic this recipe, however all have failed and been sentenced to mediocrity. This legend pours amber in color but appears ruby when held to the light. A full, off-white head laces the glass with great retention. Aroma begins with a citrus/pine hops note but balances midway with a rich caramel malt presence. The flavor starts with an exploding American hop essence but balances with a warm crystal, caramel malt focus. It’s well balanced for such a hoppy malt beer. The full finish has lingering hop and caramel sweetness well after the last sip.

Dogbrick (9830) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - JUN 17, 2015
Sample at the brewpub. Murky brownish-amber color with a medium foamy beige head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of roast malt, hops and pine. Medium-bodied with flavors of sweet malt, caramel and a substantiation piney hops undertone. The finish is malty up front with a lingering lemony and piney hops aftertaste. Decent overall.

JaBier (5739) - Capital City, Ohio, USA - MAY 8, 2015
Sample at Pigskin on 5/4/15. Opaque amber/brown color like mud with a thick beige head. Aroma of malt and floral hop with some citrus and pine. Big bitter floral hop flavor with some malt before a bitter, astringent finish.
