4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 unclemattie (4358) - Georgia, USA - FEB 20, 2010
Growler. Light muddy brown color. Rocky head with a thick, chewy appearance. Aroma of sweet toffee and caramel malt. A big and chewy beer. The heaviest bodied beer of all the HmB beers. Rich sweet malt flavor. Nice earth hop finish with suttle fruitiness. Almost like a sweet watermelon sugary fruit finish. Instead of getting my 4 pints to a growler, Ill make this into 8 half pints. Its big and tasty. Yum!
