Crooked Stave Artisan Beer Project Road Tripper
What the brewers say
“Hoppy amber ale.”
What our panel thought
“Some bright grapefruit notes in the nose blend with a subtle malt character of bread crust and earthy wood. Earthy citrus notes continue into the flavor, balanced by a light, caramel-malt body. Resinous bitter notes emerge, linger into the next sip.”
What our editors thought
“Classic American-hops nose with bits of dry forest and brief citrus glints over a doughy malt foundation. Spiky, then loose, in the sip as the initial hop bitterness punches quick, then recedes into broad malt that fades into a lingering bitter finish.”
