Hop Butcher for the World Grid

ABV 5.75%

Hop Butcher for the World which is located in Chicago, IL, has long been on my short list to go visit. Even though I did not get the opportunity to check them out on my recent Chicago trip, I at least picked up some of their beer. (it is hard to find it in Cincinnati). This would not have been the exact style I would have chosen, but I was still not disappointed with their product. This American pale ale brewed with citra and mosaic hops was quite delicious. The beer poured a clear orange color with a frothy head formation. The nose was citrusy with orange and somewhat tropical notes. The brew had a nice full mouthfeel with flavors of juicy candied orange peel. There was some definite dankness to this one as well. Looking forward to sampling more from this brewery.
