Dave's BrewFarm 007


Dave's BrewFarm 007. 5.6% ABV.

Appearance: clear, bright amber color, large and lasting, creamy white head, leaving lace, looking lovely.

Aroma: Hops hit first, crystal clear and clean, fruity esters shining through, along with citrus hop notes, touches of the tropical. Nice.

Taste: Hops dance again on the palate, though their presence is downplayed. Malt sweetness takes the stage and they meet halfway. Excellent balance, consummate drinkability. Medium body, long hoppy finish. Tasty stuff. In a class of it's own.

What's Farmer Dave say? "Not as much mystery and intrigue as Mr. Bond, this German ale is well-hopped with Columbus, Nugget, and Brewer's Gold hops, Pale and Caramel-20 malts and fermented with "#1007" yeast (but I shortened it to make it "intriguing…").

More I drink it, the more I dig it. Beautiful.
