Blacks of Kinsale Rocket Ship

  Blacks of Kinsale Rocket Ship (6.5%)

Described as an "intergalactic gyrating joyride" - Or, maybe like banging a Dalek. Odd aroma of metal, like a Dalek's cock socket, like nickel on the nostrils, tungsten on the tongue. I "hop" it tastes better than it smells. Pleasantly surprised. Great balance of hops, like loitering youths they're on the corner but causing no hassle, no trouble brewing. (HueHueHue)

A little citrusy, tinges of watermelon but an unfortunate metal aftertaste. (Bitter really, but metal sounds better) It's like Will Ferrell these days - he's not doing any damage, but it's not adding anything bad or doing any good either. An enjoyable tipple for most circumstances but lacks that something special, this rocket ship is most definitely not rocket fuel.



Reasonable Refreshment
