Anchor Summer Beer

On tap at the Blue Dog. Pours a clear yellow with a big white head. Aroma is light, pilsner aroma. Flavor is pilsner like with some wheat.

The bottle poured a light amber clear beer with an ample rocky white head that dissipated to a thin white head that then lasted throughout. It left nice lacing on the glass. The aroma was of wheat and malt with some notes of American hops. The body was medium with medium carbonation. The texture was dry and grainy. The flavor starts off with a slight wheat sourness and a bit of a bitter bite at the back of the tongue. The middle becomes dry and a bit tart while the finish is medium in length, dry and a little bitter.

light yellow body with a white head.grain.wheat aroma with a taste pretty close to bud/coors.only a little thicker in the body.

dark golden brown w/ a nice white well laced head lots of vis carbonation. Fairly bland smell of bread dough lemon rind and some dead hop. Palate is lightly carbonated and thin. Flavor is overly waterry not much to it some weak lemon and malt.

Bottle, from Julio’s. Good nose, sweet. Wheat, lemon, sourdough, banana. Clean yellowy gold color, small head that faded quickly. Like aroma with lemon 1st, wheat 2cd others from there. Medium body, lite creamy mouthfeel, crisp tart finish. Nice summer brew. One I will tell people to try.

Thanks to DMeyers69. Sugary and sweet aroma. Toffee and caramel, orange essence. Light fruity hops and some sweet bread. Golden amber clear with some haze, topped with a white foamy lacing head. Medium watery body with very high carbonation, almost like soda or selzer. Starts with mild malt sweetness. Bland toffee and very light orange. Bit of spice that I can’t quite place. Carbonic acidity. Light wheat flavor, too. Finish is medium bitter with wheaty citrus after, though fairly clean.

Not a winner. Not bad mind you, but not one I’d come back to. Aroma is very wheat /yeast, with very little else. Light yellow appearance. Label talks about abundant head, but I saw none. Flavor is all wheat, with very little depth. Easy on the mouth, though almost too easy, as it has a watery consistency. Again, not a bad beer, but closer to Coors than to Rogue.

This is a great summer beer and not really too much to think about. Just sit back and enjoy.
