252: Gordon Ale

I didn’t read the label before opening. I don’t know if it was the can’s color, or maybe I confused “Gordon” with “Dale” somehow, but I was expecting a light beer when I popped the tab. I set the beer down at one end of the coffee table, and a minute later, it was like a plume of hop aroma had erupted from this can. HUGE aroma. I think the room actually became a little green from the hop haze.

But it was too sticky for me. Sticky is my least favorite sensation, you see.
