What does it tastes like? I love basil rolls, but I'm not sure about a basil beer.

It tastes great!
The cascades and the basil really blend togather quite well. I used cinnamon basil as per Evan!'s recipe, which is a spicy and aromatic strain of basil. The flavor of the basil comes through real well but does not overtake the beer. It sort of blends with the hops for a unique flavor.

I made two batches of this at the end of the summer with my hop harvest and it was fantastic! One of my favorite beers....ever.

Here is a link to the original, if your interested.
