Weeping Radish Farm Brew

Brewed by Weeping Radish Farm Brewery
Style: Altbier
Jarvisburg, North Carolina USA

0.5L bottle. Orange-brown, semi-cloudy, very small white head. Aroma is very much cereal, grain, bread, with faint caramel. Flavor is grainy, some more caramel. Finish is citrus, slightly dry, slightly malty. Would like a touch more maltiness, little less bread, but not too bad.

Bottle courtesy of Miver. Poured a somewhat hazy golden/brown color body with a decent off white head. The aroma was pretty subdude. Flavors were kinda dirty grains with some toffee, cardboard, nuts, and more alcohol than a 4.9% beer should have in the flavor.

500ml bottle shared courtesy of Miver. Poured a medium to deepter orangish color with a large sized off white head. Aromas of nuts and caramel. I wasn’t really getting too much else. Tastes of the same nuttiness, caramel, grains, and some cardboard.

Big-ass bottle brought to our departmental picnic - thanks, Ann and Mike! Reddish brown pour with a faint carbonation. Sharp hay notes blend with toffee malts in the nose, making for an offbeat but fairly appealing entry to the style. Not sure it all hangs together in the taste, though, as the spice and yeast seem a bit off, with an effect that combines as both harsh and a bit brackish. Nice sweet malts and hops in there nonetheless, but this beer wasn’t what it could have been.

Wierd little beer. Very earthy and a ton of vegetable flavor. Pours brown with a thin white head and smells bready. Farm brew is just about the right description. It tastes like a farm, but not in the good Fantome way. Not really something that I enjoy, but I’m glad to have tried it.

Serving: Draft. Appearance: Cloudy, deep brown with a foamy, off-white head. Aroma: Light malt and caramel notes in the nose. Flavor: Light malt notes, but not much else. Just kind of bitter and tasteless. Perhaps my palate was ruined by their other crappy beers. Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel and a short, malty finish. Overall: This one may be the best out of the bunch, but wow, they need some serious help at this brewery.

Thanks to miver for sharing this one. Pours a mostly translucent golden amber with a smaller bubbly/creamy off white head that left some lacing. Aroma of molasses, caramel, toffee, earthy, nuts, woody and some cardboard. Flavor was kind of tart, grainy, dry, bubbly carbonation, caramel, nuts and a touch of hops.

500 ml picked up in OBX. Poured cloudy dull gold in color with a medium sized beige head. Aroma was dusty, caramel malt, grassy. Taste was nutty, caramel malts with a touch of alcohol warming. Finish was a little dry and not too bad. ok.
