quick check to google (just like the last beer i posted) disagrees with you.

pretty hoppy with lots of citrus aroma (smells like grapefruit). surprised you would like it.

oh, for fuck's sake

where's the :fp: smilie? oh, that's right.....

worth the hype?


I got a couple of hopslam in a trade last week...

it's good... but it's lacking that "wow" factor... according to the bottles it was packaged on 12/20/2013.... by the time I got it, it was 2 months in the bottle... guessing that it's a lot better fresh...
