No it isn't but it's not a bad beer. I enjoy it from time to time. But again I like all craft brews of all types as long as their good. My latest DFH beer I'm diggin is the Sautea...really good.

It's like cigars, everyone's palate is different.

SN Celebration Ale = Good Stuff

Well seeing that Baltika label in your avatar explains a great deal.

J/K. I swear the stalest, most skunked beer I ever had was a Baltika #3, so I think that put me in a negative frame of mind about Baltika.

Did you check the date on it? The Baltikas we get aren't too far to being out of date when we get them from the distributors. I don't know if they just have them for awhile because they don't sell that quickly, or if they also get them without much time left on them. I still haven't tried any though, I need to.

I really like hops. As opposed to some I find the bitterness crisp and refreshing on a hot day. I also like stouts, porters, bocks, belgians, and ambers. I like beer I guess

I do think it is interesting that such large amounts of hops are being used by microbreweries when the world supply is so low and the cost is so high. I would think they would be pushing maltier beers.
