Nice to see both a best before with plenty of time to go and a batch number on an import. This too looks well built, hop flower aromatics and bitterness with an extra layer of barley rich richness in three too. The palate is thus both rich and hoppy, if a fraction short. Good American Pale Ale if just a little heavy.

Would I buy it? I’d prefer a Sierra Nevada but this is tasty enough.
