Sisyphus Centennial Pale Ale


Sisyphus Centennial Pale Ale, according to what Sam wrote on the crowler's label. Also that it's 6.5% ABV, 56 IBUs and was filled 8/20, last Thursday.

Clear, bright amber, with a slim, lasting white head.

Classic Centennial hop nose, fresh citrus, lemon and lime, fresh and lively.

On the tongue and down the throat, it's more of the same, with a thrilling bitterness riding the palate. This is what I want in a single hop pale ale. Refreshing and drinkable, yes, but with the incessant sensation of Centennial hops. Delicious. In fact, yum. Indeed, even yummy.

So tasty, and so finely tuned toward the thirsty hophead. A well-made beer, and a fine addition to the Sisyphus roster.
