This beer kicks it with the 9.5 ABV.  I could do another 1 or 2, but mortalz should proceed with caution!

Overall Score: 9

Value:
8.5
Cost/12 oz serving: $2.14

Overall Impression:
True to American form, this tasty brew is more hoppy than ones coming from Belgium, but it's from Brew Jersey, so get over it!  I feel this is the best offering from Flying Fish to date, and I am looking forward upcoming Exit Series releases.  This baby is bottle conditioned (get it?), so it can get better with age!
