  • Purchased at Flight Bottle Shoppe on 2020-10-15. Date on can of 10/13/20.

    Pours clear. A nice, white, billowing head covers the beer. Good retention and thin lacing.

    Aroma of ripe, non-distinguishable fruits. Not sweet.

    Taste follows the nose. As it warms there are hints of alcohol but never take over or become obnoxious.

    Medium body but towards the bigger end. Light carbonation. Dry.

    This is what I would call a typical Enigma hop beer. The hop becomes very ambiguous ripe to overripe fruit as the hops have a chance to age and it doesn't take long. Not my favorite hop because of the profile that it creates. I would have this beer again but I would not purchase it again. Enjoy!
