Alaskan Summer Ale

Draft at Pizza Port, Carlsbad. A light golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of fruit, peaches, and oranges, as well as notes of vitamin pills. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of peaches and citrus, leading to a dry bitter finish. The body is thin. Boring.

On tap. Clear yellow with a white head. Lightly sweet malty nose. Medium body, sweet clean malts. No real bitterness. Very malt accentuated indeed. 080709

From tap at Pizza Port, Carlsbad. Pours clear and golden yellow with a lacing white head. Mild spiced and light hoppy aroma. Mild spiced and hoppy flavour. Quite dry and light spiced. A bit flat in the finish yet bitter, slight spiced and mild fruity at once in a lasting mix.

Clear apple juice body topped by minimal off-white head. Aroma is honey sweet, fruity, cereal. Taste is medium sweet, stronger cereal, particularly in the finish. Light body that lacks crispness.

Bottle, bought @ YNWA, Kolding.

Pours a clear golden orange with a small, rather fizzy white head. Aroma has rye bread, sweetness and light hops. Light mouthfeel. Quite sweet with clear maltiness as well. Some oxidation, but not overly much so. It is a nice enough summer beer, but rather dull

My first Kolsch. Poured a lighter golden yellow color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of malts and citris (lemon). Tastes like it smells (sweet malty with citris) - more on the sweet side. Fizzy body.

Bottle. Betterthan the amber. But still pretty timid and thin, diluted maltyness, lemon, melon, not many hops. No big deal, easy to drink.

Clear, light golden ale with a small, creamy, white head. The nose is lightly spicy with notes of pear, toffee, vanilla and biscuit. The flavor has good balance. Fruity, spicy and well-hopped. Light-bodied with medium carbonation. Short, clean, semi-dry finish.
