Beef Beer Review
I rate this beer 3 BBB's. It is uncommonly smooth but has bitter aftertaste. Winterhook is brewed and bottled for only a short time period each year, which is true for most winter/holiday brews. It is brewed with custom kilned 2-row barley, Williamette and U.S. Goldings hops, caramel 80 (Not the caramel candy that you got on Halloween), and a touch of chocolate malt. The beer itself is smooth and the initial flavor is pleasant. Once the beer reaches the back of the mouth the flavor becomes bitter. There is also a bitter aftertaste. Although the bitterness caused me to rate this beer less than 4 BBB's I would buy it again and definitely serve it to my friends. If you like microbreweries or beer with a little bitter flavor this is the beer for you. The label on the bottle shows old man winter and looks pretty cool. This beer can be purchase at most stores that sell beer for about $6.50.
Price: Paid $6.50 for a standard six pack. Availability: Widely Available . URL: www.redhook.com
