ABV: 10 percent
Appearance: Hopslam has a copper-like glow to its body. I've really never seen a color like this on a beer before. The head was actually very white and thick as well. It has beautiful lacing all the way trough the drink, too.Smell: Hops, hops and more hops. Just check out the name of the beer in case you've forgotten. Behind that is a slight scent of honey. This was very pleasant instead of a complete hops bombardment.
Taste: Tasting this beer is like having your sinus cavity stuffed full of hops. The hop taste is fairly strong, but the honey does a fairly decent job of balancing out the flavor. I just wish the honey was a bit more powerful in this beer.
Overall Rating:
In my opinion, I've had better beers than this. It also comes with a lot of hype within the craft beer community. I think that if there was a bit more flavor than just the overbearing hops it's that much closer to a perfect beer. Some of you might already think that and that's fine. Just because I don't think a beer isn't the greatest beer in the world doesn't mean it can't be for you. I'm also not the biggest fan of the hoppiest beers out there.
