Now I don't know what to think

At our family reunion, I passed some of the smoked APA around to various family members--beer geeks and regular old BMC drinkers. The general consensus was that the smoked APA was pretty good and not "band-aidy" at all.

So I tried a bottle.

I still taste plastic, but not so much as from the keg. So I will submit this to the Cactus Challenge coming up in Lubbock. Stay tuned!
