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.

Sierra Nevada Northern Hemisphere Harvest

Same night as the Rogue Yellow Snow IPA.  The southern hemisphere was good, so I can't wait to drink

Look/Smell - Dark Tan, slight yellow.  Hoppy, with caramel malt in background.

Taste - Hops, like Yellow Snow, but softer, and balance by caramel and, and too many commas in this sentence.  This is an IPA I'd like to give to someone who's never had one.  Wow, it's smoothness is even better as you get through the initial taste.

Rating - 8
Great IPA, what you should look for.  I think it's right in the middle, so it get's a deserving 8.
