If this is the one you brought to the split it was great. Can't wait to crack the bottle.

Yup, same one. I had just kegged it the night before and bottled it that morning, so I figure a couple weeks of age will do it some good. Was really fresh the morning of the exchange.

This was amazing and I really wish I had another. Or several more. Amazing aroma, excellent bitterness, but not lacking in balance. Fucking great beer. Thanks!

Another solid beer, I got a nice nose of hops as soon as the pour started, got a bit of alcohol as it warmed up but the malt body balanced everything out very well. :cheers3:

My bad, I drank it all before I thought of anything helpful or insightful to say. So, take that as a compliment!

Thanks man, loved it. None of that harsh dryhop astringent character.

Having this one now. Great job Dave. Hop flavour is so complex. Could drink this until I pass out.
