  • Aroma, the label says dank. I'm wondering if this is wet hopped. There is a bit of grassiness to the hop. A slight sweetness to the grain is hinted at.
    Look. Golden, translucent. Thin lace no head.
    Taste. Medium body, dry, I'm wondering of its Columbus hopped? Strong bitterness with linger. This is not a session beer- hence the bomber. One is plenty. Not friendly to the hop head that can't take the bitter after burn. Will wreck your palate if your doing a tasting. And it's just fine. So is it worth it? I think the value of clown shoes is in the price. I'm wondering if they are the Midwest price point

  • Pours cloud with an inch or more of off-white, thick foam. Retention is about average leaving behind a thick, coating lacing.

    Aroma is of grassy, dank hops with not much else going on. The hops are forward.

    Taste is light up front with hops building quickly through the end and into the finish. Floral, grassy, dank start first. The dankness lasts while picking up tons of grapefruit bitterness that lingers and builds. Quite a lot of unbalanced bitterness.

    Medium body with light end of medium carbonation. Definitely dries the palate.

    I like hops but this beer is not well balanced. There is tons of bitterness that doesn't have any sweetness to balance and break through. Enjoy!
