I didn't enjoy this today but I totally forgot to post about it:

Bell's Hopslam!
It's beautiful and not as dark as I was expecting. It smells like a big bright bowl of citrus but has some dark smells around the edges. If a grapefruit wore shoes, this is what his socks would smell like after a leisurely spent day (in a good way.) It's not musky and dirty like DFH 90 Minute. It's one of the most beautiful smelling beers I've had.

When I took a gulp, I noticed that it's way thicker than it seems like it should be. It's got some honey-sweet to it but not even approaching overpowering. The malt backbone only makes a perfunctory appearance; this beer's raison d'etre is HOPS! The hop bitterness is one of the most complex I've experienced. It doesn't hit you all at once. It's more like a wild ride that loops and whirls, swoops and dives and keeps changing even on the same mouthful.

I was expecting a hop "POW!" similar to Stone Ruination but it's more like a continual onslaught rather than a sharp poke. I was surprised to note that, rather than pummeling the palate into numbness, you can actually enjoy the bitter journey throughout the entire glass.

The high ABV (10%) is hidden really well. Well, maybe not "hidden" as much as "hiding itself" from the hop army.

As it is now, Hopslam is one of the most enjoyable beer's I've been privileged to experience.
