Headstock - Nickel Brook - 7% - Burlington, ON

Better Bitters Brewing Company out of Burlington, Ontario, Canada has produced a beer in Headstock that is clearly designed to get your attention. The can alone is jacked with enough art to make your head spin before you indulge. They are not kidding when they say this is a strong beer. This beer may need a warning label. The snap-your-neck hops flavour and the 7% alcohol makes for a solid bitter. Similar to the American IPA's and Crazy Canuck but stuffed with way more hops flavour.  The intense flavours in Headstock require time to work through a pint of this beer. This is a beer to be sipped, a beer to be enjoyed slowly, slow beer, groovy beer.
Peace out Man.

  1. I thought this was a surprisingly positive review; until I realized you weren't writing about "Nickelback" (a.k.a Canada's worst export).

    Keep up the good work.
