Beer of the Week

The beer: Pool Hopping

The brewery: Flying Dog Brewery, Frederick, Maryland

Description (from the website): "Crafted to be enjoyed on the sunny deck of your choosing, this stripped-down summer ale offers a big juicy hop presence complimented by a moderate body and low bitterness. With tropical notes of mango and citrus, it pairs perfectly with a speedo, tan lines and doing a whole lotta of nothing."

Would I buy it again? I will say, this beer is certainly very easy to drink. A little too easy. That big juicy hop presence? Maybe if you've never had a beer before. I'm also not really getting the tropical flavors either. It's not terrible, just a bit bland and boring. I was hoping for something juicier and more exciting.
