My grading scale

It is subjective, but I think you'll be able to understand where I'm coming from:

1-3 "Horrible" : NEVER BUY THIS!!!! (Or buy it just to see what crappy beer tastes like.)

4-5 "Ok" : These beers need a little work. Usually from a company known for another type of brew.

6-7 "Good": It's ok, for now.

8-9 "Great" : Try this at least once, you'll be happy you did :D

10!!!!! "Godly" = This is attainable, but the most subjective of all grades. If I ever give a beer a 10 it'll be because it blows your mind.

HI.P.A. from Magic Hat

Been awhile but this one is special.  Magic Hat says this is a limited edition IPA that they're demoing as a creative outlet for themselves. 

Look, Pour, Smell - Hazy orange, persistent but short head;  hops own the smell.

Taste - Unique hop flavor...the hops are first and and malt second which is super unique.  It's nice that the bitter hops fade for a sweet, buttery malt.

Rating - 8
This one is unique, and you won't be disappointed...if you can find it.
