Estimated percent alcohol: 3.5%Comments:
First tasting, before bottling- Licorice taste very prominent. Hopefully age will mellow it somewhat.
Second tasting, after nine days- No head and little carbonation, should improve with more time.
Hop aroma very noticeable. Licorice and hops first, then trails off to a slightly weak finish.
Needs more time.
Third tasting, 15 days. It's good! Licorice has mellowed to the point its strength is just a bit less then the hops.
Very nice hop aroma. All around good beer!
Grade: B+
