Beast poured a cloudy rich orange color with a huge frothy off white head.  The nose was full of hops with a slight dryness to it.  The first sip had some underlying malts before turning pretty hoppy.  The body was smooth and the body length is not that long which works so that the the hoppy taste is not overpowering.  The finish is dry and will sit on your tongue for awhile.  This beer is very consistant and although I am not a huge fan of this style, this is one of the better bitters I have tasted.  I would recommend this as a great summer beer to hop fans as it is easy drinking.
