Escondido, California - American Strong Ale - 7.20% ABV - This Bastard of an ale poured a dark amber color with a khaki colored, frothy head that leaves excellent lacing on the glass. Aromas of pine needles, citrus, biscuity malts, toasted caramel, and molasses are prevalent on the nose. The mouth was solid; balanced flavors of bitter malts, pine, cracked pepper, and herbaceous notes come together nicely. Arrogant Bastard has a medium-bodied mouthfeel with medium carbonation, and a long, zesty finish. Arrogant Bastard may not be for everyone, but if it is, "You're Worthy!" Cheers! 9.2/10
