My. God.\u201d Leading to a pregnant pause and finally, \u201cThis thing looks ridiculous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps, I\u2019ve become a bit of a curmudgeon as I\u2019ve gotten older. One would think that with all of the beer that I have consumed through the years, I would have run into something that looked like Vicious Hook previously. And, I have, but I guess I just wasn\u2019t expecting that opaque, shade of pink coming out of that brown bottle. It was surprising to say the least.<\/p>\n<p>Despite my initial reaction to the appearance of this 5.3% ABV (5 IBU) brew, the color actually aids in persuading the mind to expect burst of passionfruit, strawberry, cherry and bitter orange that fills the nose and the mouth, briefly. The fruitiness hits quickly and just as rapidly steps aside for the moderate level of sour tartness to arrive and reach its peak with gusto. The tartness isn\u2019t going to peel enamel from your teeth and only sits at a plateau for a little bit, eventually allowing the fruit to come back to the front, fading gently into the lightly drying finish.<\/p>\n<p>A sharp crispness helps push the flavors around with each swallow and makes for a surprisingly easy drinking sour experience. Vicious Hook is, in the end, an interesting and fun beer that I quite enjoyed when all was said and done \u2013  once you get past that initial shock of seeing it for the first time.<\/p>\n<p><em>This is a review of a promotional sample from the brewery.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"\">&#13;<\/p>\n<h3>Appearance<\/h3>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Reddish pink and opaque with a dense, pillowy head of bright pink foam. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<h3>Aroma<\/h3>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Strawberry, cherry, lemon, passion fruit, orange, light bitterness and a twinge of sour tingle. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<h3>Taste<\/h3>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Fruity up front with a moderate amount of sour tartness.
