Contract brewed by Fredrick Brewing in MD according to 1516 purity law.

Dark yellow pour with some lacing and a little head.

Quite assertive in both the malt and hop department. Nose shows a good balance with the emphasis on malt, but some bitter promise too.

Dry hops nicely supported by the stong malts. Dry finish but rounded, satisfying and refreshing.

When I am in the Charleston and Hilton Head areas this is one of the brews I drink.
