Mike D EstesPk is drinking an Empire Strikes Bitter by Rock Cut Brewing Co. at Rock Cut Brewing Company
Malty, with citrus highlights. Pithy, like the *inside* of the peel - or a different variety, like navals.

Mike D EstesPk is drinking an Arrogant Bastard Ale by Arrogant Consortia at Untappd at Home
Back to the beginning. Classic Stone, et al. "Balance" with a strong malty backbone and a potent orange-peel bitterness, but almost lager-smooth. As bitter as an extract from the peel but plays very gently with the tongue. First check-in - a surprise!

Surprised I haven't checked this in before. Malty fragrance with a hint of citrus. Same flavor profile, with a little more of that citrus. Bitter finish but gentle. Mellow mouth, almost like a lager.
