22oz Bomber. Green’s, Buford Highway, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Mid amber/orange body with a degree of chill haze and some persistent carbonation. Half inch head that is decent and immediately leaves some nice, if somewhat scant lacing.
Sugary sweet hops in the nose.
Complex or just a mess? Frankly it’s difficult to tell. There are three things desperately competing for my attention. A sickly sweet malt base, some astringent sugared grapefruit hops and a high level of alcohol that is not well hidden. That combination doesn’t really make for a very attractive beer.
Way too sweet, even for my sweet tooth, and the package seems hurriedly put together. Unbalanced and it gives the impression that this is a big beer for big beers sake. Failed to finish half of the bottle, not because I couldn’t manage it, but becasue it really wasn’t nice to drink.
