Lagunitas Wilco Tango Foxtrot Ale

Poured out of a 22 ounce bottle into an imperial pint glass.  Picked this up at my local Spec's.  Here we go:

Aroma:  Piny, resiny hops with a sweet malt background.

Appearance:  Nice ruby brown.  Off white head that leaves lacing as you drink up.

Flavor:  First you get a quick jab of hop flavors: resiny, piny, and floral.  The hops are quickly followed by a sweet malty back bone with a light caramel and roasty notes.  The balance leaves the palate ready for the next sip.


Mouth-feel:   Medium carbonation.  Easy drinking.

Overall:   Lagunitas has never let me down.  This is a great Imperial American Brown Ale.  Perfectly balanced.  Awesome hop flavor and aroma for you hopheads out there.  Great caramely roasty maltiness.  Oh how I love brown ales.  This beer really gives me inspiration to brew.
