Marketed as, “Charlie 1981” at Taco Mac on the East West Connector, Austell, GA, USA.
16 oz pint.
Slightly murky, brown body with good lace. Some chill haze in the glass, not much clarity.
Aroma has very hop-based and I could easily feel this ought to be classified as a typical American DIPA.
Typically Rogue, the beer seems slightly over-hopped to me, and this beer is essentially a DIPA. Resinous hops, strong, astringent nose and a slight burn. Hops tire the palate quickly in a combination of residual sweetness and fatiguing, west coast hops.
Not really my cup of tea, one and done.
