| 2011-01-16 | kegged | Had a tasting with real Arrogant Bastard last night. The aroma is close, and the hop flavor is pretty close. There's a cherry/raisin-y flavor in the clone that's not present in the original (from the Special B, undoubtedly). There was also a much higher sweetness, even though attenuation looks good; this might be due to 1056 instead of the recommended wlp007/wyeast1098 (Whitbread). |
