Well, Sam had a good run. See, I had gotten a hop sampler, and that's why I had the two tremendous beers earlier this week. This was the last of the bunch, and I'm a bit disappointed. It not horrid swill, but they claim to have gone to a bunch of different places on the 48th parallel (which they refer to as the "hop belt") to get her hops for this, and it just wasn't worth it.
It's bitterness to hoppyness ratio is completely off toward the bitter. The malt doesn't mask anything but the hops themselves. Again, this isn't a horrible beer; it's just a letdown.
2.0/5
