Overall Impression:
It was much better than I thought it would be. SN is known for hoppy beers with a lot of emphasis on citrus, so I was kinda expecting some strange Americanized version of a German Classic, but that was not the case here. It's damn good! This is a great style for Newbeez to check out. This ain't no Shocktop - it's the real deal
