Tasting of brewed beer

2010-09-09 11:58am

This beer was a power house. You can taste the alcohol a bit more than what I expected. The beer itself is very refreshing with a light bouquet. I was expecting a slightly heavier beer but it still turned out very good. The hops the alcohol and the malts make a good blend overall. Enjoy...
