I don't know why I thought it would be a good idea to watch the VMAs. Crapfest. Rubicon, maybe you could be the standout closing performance of the night?
This is pretty hoppy, I actually wondered if it was a double IPA before checking the label again, but I also think that's a pretty standard reaction to the first sip of an IPA. This doesn't try to break the standard IPA mold and that's fine with me. It mellows out a little once you get about halfway in, but nothing distinctive jumps out.
This beer is Elijah Wood. Commercially successful, completely capable of standing on stage with other great actors, but when you get down to it, not very distinctive. I mean, I'm not pissed he was Frodo, but I'm always left thinking, "That's it? Meh, ok."
