Taste Rating(out of 50): 45.0 Brewhouse Efficiency: -
Taste Notes: Tasted great and very clear...one of the first of 2 batches I kegged in my new kegerator system. People at the neighborhood party really liked it (and almost drained the batch). This batch blew the top off too, but it didn't hurt the beer.
