Beer Reviews:
Tobin’s Review 4 out of 5
Modern Times Hoppy Tropical Pale Ale has a murky light gold hue with a small head. I pickup pineapple and slight hops on the nose. It’s a soft beer with a wee bit of bitterness at the end; but overall very smooth. It is creamy with a hint of tropical fruit and hops. Good beer!
