12 oz single from Trader Joe’s, $1 for the bottle.

Pour shows a mid-gold color with some head and surprisingly some lace. This looks (and looks) much more like a lager than an ale.

Quite a prevalent alcohol content (seems even higher than it actually is) and the feel is quite viscous too. To me this is a bit of an odd beast. An Ale that feels like a high alcohol malt liquor, but finishes with the bitterness of a Pils. Pretty dry in the finish too. Mild burn on the way down. This brew is a little rough around the edges, I might even say unrefined.

Not a bad beer, and good value (again) from Trader Joe’s, but having said that I didn’t really care for it much.
