Member Notes:
Bright golden orange in color with a bright white head, this smells piney of hops, with a slight musky stank to it. It's a little bready in the mouth, with a striking, sweet, plant-like hop flavor. Its body is thick and smooth, and it's great for delivering the very nicely brewed hop bouquet. Smooth, bready, and very hoppy, yet very well-balanced. Very cool. 7 4 7-8 4 15 A- - noss
Club & Brewer Notes:
Lake Erie Monster stories are like fish stories. Drink a few of these handcrafted Imperial IPAs and you're bound to start boasting and weaving wild tales of mythic proportions. Drink more and you might even have visions of South Bay Bessie, the freshwater cryptid for which our Lake Erie Monster is named, lifting her scaly head above the surface of Lake Erie. Or the Cuyahoga River. Or a kiddie pool. Actually, if you see Bessie in a kiddie pool, take it easy. You've probably had too many.
