6.4% abv
12 oz bottle
Sierra Nevada Brewing Co.
Chico, California, USA
Appearance: an electric golden color with a fine white one finger head and not much on the lacing of the glass.
Aroma: To me this bouquet is too light to tell. I even changed rooms to smell this beer (worked before on others) and the same thing – too light to tell. Faint bready, maybe a hop note – I give up. I even poured another one to see if I could pick up any aroma notes – nothing different.
Flavors: On the front of the sip there are some bready malts, a touch of pecan nuttiness, and grains. Then, on the finish the green peppercorn spice hits the back of the palate and I also think there is a pine needle like quality playing on the palate.
Mouthfeel: a moderate hoppy tingle tantalizes the tongue, lemon ring note hanging around, very crisp,
Strength Rating: 4.5 – for some that peppery, pine needle like quality will raise their personal strength rating.
