Rogue Brutal Bitter

After a bite to eat at the Pic and a quick grocery shopping trip, Riss and I tried a bomber of Rogue Brutal Bitter.

An interesting beer. Very nice, clean citus aroma. A decent white head of average duration, it appears somewhere between a dark gold and light tan. As the company describes it, Brutal Bitter is "a cross between a Very Extra Special Bitter and an Indian Pale Ale". While pleasant enough, I found the offering a bit bland. The hop aroma is not followed up by much bitterness, certainly not "brutal", anyway. It's kind of like an IPA on prozac.
