Pours and color are the same. Aroma is a dank hoppiness along with pineapple. Flavor is dank hops that has some herbal qualities to it and then a slight bitterness that has some very subtle malty sweetness to it. The aroma is much better but the actual flavor is just too dense in terms of hops. The body and carbonation are the same. So, I like this beer more than before as the toffee flavor is gone, which makes me want to bump it up a star, but I just don't think it's a 4 star beer. This is really a 3.5 star beer, slightly better than average. I wouldn't use the hop hash again but it was fun to try it.
Pours medium orange, not quite amber with 2.5 fingers of rocky foam that dissipates slowly. Aroma is dank hoppiness directly from the hop hash, slightly fruity but herbal and earthy as well. Taste is an exaggeration of the aroma, very dank hoppiness with pine and herbal dominance followed by a not too potent bitterness. There's almost a toffee flavor to it as well, but I feel that it's just because if the hop hash concentration. Body is medium in density yet soft, slight nucleation sharpness. The hop flavor is okay, just too dense basically. The balance isn't quite right as it needs more malt. The hop hash would be good for a barleywine, but this is too light to carry the hop hash.
