Tropic Thunder poured a murky, rusty, copper color with a finger width, off white head.  The nose is huge, fruity with a strong citrusy hop aroma. The body has a a thick malt base and low carbonation giving it a cask ale like mouthfeel.  There is a ton of citrus and a huge amount of piney hops.  A short hp bite on the back end leads to a lingering bitterness that gets dryer and dryer.  There was some hanging lace left on the glass. Overall, this is a really good pale ale.  Huge flavor profile, and lots of hops have this bordering on an IPA.   

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
