Guide Review - Tasting Notes and Review of Sierra Nevada's Celebration Ale

Celebration pours with a thick head of medium strength. The body is amber and clear. The nose is dominated by fresh, citrusy hops. The flavor begins with a nice medium maltiness but this is quickly overtaken by an intense bitterness that finishes the taste and lingers for a long time.
