Hopslam!

Bell's Hopslam

I'm just about done finishing off my 4th of July beer stash. This is a seasonal beer. Look for it again in the spring.

Label Stuff: Ale brewed with honey. A biting, bitter, tongue bruiser of an ale. With a name like Hopslam, what did you expect?

Do you like it? It's almost too bitter, but like they said, it's called Hopslam. What did I expect?

Alcohol: 10%. That's it! Sounds like a session beer to me.

Definition:
Session Beer: A beer that is low in alcohol and has a balanced flavor of both hops and malt. The purpose being so that it can be drank over a long session of time with out overwhelming the palate or getting the drinker too intoxicated. (Occassional saracasm will be found on this blog.)

Cost: Approximately $16 a 6/pack.
Grade: A-
Cost Adjusted Grade: B
Bonus on-tap grade: A+
