The Big Friendly Amarillo Fresh Hop
What the brewers say
“A huge punch of tropical flavors trails into a subtle piney finish.”
What our panel thought
“Notes of orange, mango, pineapple, peach combine with hints of pine and garlic in the nose. A sharp bitterness that leans piney cuts through the somewhat soft malt and strips away much of the nuance. The bitterness lingers into the finish.”
What our editors thought
“Crunchy-fresh hop notes in the nose with a touch of diesel and that green, fresh-hop vegetal note from flowers recently picked. A bit unfocused in the body, as the green and citrus fruit notes meander through a loosely defined sip.”
