Rocky: Much more balanced than the Alpha King I just had. They call it a mild, and I suppose it is compared to their other offerings. I probably should've had this one first, because after the hoppiness of the Alpha King almost anything would seem mild. 4.8% ABV, smooth, tasty...this is a great session beer. It's too hoppy for a traditional mild...more like a typical pale ale, and maybe on the hoppy side of that. Think of a cross between Bass and SNPA. This would be welcomed in my fridge or cooler any time. (5/28/2005)
