Tasting - Chinook SMaSH

This turned out to be a real nice session beer.  Light a crisp, malty notes on the aroma.  Would have preferred more Chinook aromatics given the late additions, not sure what happened there.  I've never really been able to get much aroma from late kettle additions, lots of flavour just not aroma.

At near 44 ibu, the beer drinks crisp and slightly dry but not nearly as bitter as you might imagine.  It's actually fairly well balanced all thing considering.  I started drinking it real young, brewed on February 20th, I was pouring pints by March 10th.

Easy drinking albeit fairly one dimensional.  Body and head retention surprisingly good consider the uber simple malt bill.

As far as appearances are concerned, a picture speaks 1000 words.
