Aspen Meadow Pale Ale

Brewed by Cold Spring Brewery
Style: American Pale Ale
Cold Spring, Minnesota USA

Had on 8/2/200. Aroma is a light malt scent. Color is bright clear gold with good carbonation and head. Taste is light and crisp. Starting with a light body it goes down crisp and clean. Finish is a very light malt flavor and very mild bitterness. Overall I think it would have been better as a Pilsner, it’s light crisp and refreshing.

Light gold with no head. Aroma is sweet and caramely. Pale ale? The only bite in this beer is from carbonation, not hops. I now see these Aspen Meadow beers are from the infamous Gluek. Utter crap.

12 oz. bottle. Pours hazy copper with minimal head. Malty, sweet nose. Flavor is sweet and malty as well. Pretty damn bad. Pale ale my ass. Drainpour.

only sllightly darker than a lager. it has a no flavor "flavor". it tastes like a fucking aspen edge or michelob ultra. stay far away

Thanks to Tom, for sharing this- my first beer from the great Gluek Brewing Company! Pours a very light golden color and a thin fizzy white head. Aroma is loaded with DMS (cooked corn moslty with slight cabbage notes), very light bready pils malt, and some herbal hops. No crystal malt found in the aroma or flavor, or hops for that matter. Just some bland malt, and lots of DMS found throughout. If you want to know what DMS is like in a beer, this is a good example. Metallic aftertaste and cabbage-like.

12oz bottle shared courtesy of TomDecapolis. Poured a medium and clear golden color with a small sized white head. Aromas of corn, grain, and light citrus. Tastes of caramel and light citrus. Thin and watery body. Thanks Tom.

Pours a translucent golden with a small white head. Aroma of corn, sweet and malty. Flavor was sweet and malty, but not much else. Hops...don’t think so. What the heck is this?
