Warbird: Pale Ale (APA) 7.3%

Drank From: bottle, poured into a pint glass

This is the second time that I've had this beer, and I can't say this is something that I would buy again. It pours dark copper with a decent one finger of head that sticks around long enough. For a pale ale, this is a surprising 7.3%, which makes the second half more enjoyable than than the first. It has a strong grainy flavor that comes across as sour in the smell. The silage/boozy smell overtakes the slight hop presence. To be respectful, it has a bold flavor that some people could get behind...just not my preference. It does remind me of the Midwest, so that's something. 

My Rating: C+/3.01
