Oh man! This is everything I love about beer in one bottle!.The balance of hops to the rest of the beer was near perfect. It was not a dry beer either, you really taste the thing after you swallow it. The foam sticks to the glass the whole way down. I tried this on my New Glarus flite, round 2. I actually went and bought more of this later on which I don;t typically do but this is a definte keeper. Again, re buying it is saying a lot because anything from New Glarus is a destination for anyone in MN because you have to go to WI to get it. Granted it is a whopping 15 minute drive to get it but still, you have to go with this mission in mind. hearty Hop will be a WI staple anytime I am over there. I had 3 of these the last time I ate at The Hammond Steakhouse. It is kind of funny I have to walk to a downstairs bar to get it myself but hey, when your in WI what more can you expect. They suck at politics, they have some of the most obnoxious sports fans in the country, but they do beer very well!
