Brewers Notes:

Nice toasty flavor from the Victory and Munich with a rich malty finish from the B. Magnum hops kick ass and add a nice solid spicy base, while my perennial favorite Cascades give it the citrusy overtones. I've been tweaking this puppy for about 5 years and don't think I'll ever really stop. I would consider it my "house" beer. It's definitely a crowd pleaser any time of year.
