4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Review from notes at World of Beer - Fort Myers on 11/17/11.
Poured on draft into a shaker pint glass.
Appearance: Pours a light gold/caramel color with a 1-2 finger frothy eggshell white head. Excellent lacing.
Smell: Nice blend of bitter citrus and malt.
Taste: Sweet earthy malt up front followed by bitter citrus in the middle before ending with a very light and smooth finish. Aftertaste is bitter lemon zest and a touch of earthy malt.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied with a good amount of carbonation.
Drinkability: Very high drinkability. You could easily have a few of these over the course of an evening.
Overall: Very good beer overall. One of the better American Pale Ales on the market.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Long Island, NY - 22 oz. poured a slightly hazy golden color with medium head and slight lacing. Aroma is hops mixed with a slight fruit aroma. Taste is mild but then develops with a thin layer of malt then fruitiness then hops. I love Blue Point!

This is a moderately decent pale ale. Very safe and simple with light grassy and citrusy hops with a lightly sweet malt profile.

Bomber courtesy of tgncc. Nice malty body, bitter finish. Not a very strong hop flavor but it’s ok.

Pour froma 22 oz bottle. Clear yellow brew with white head. Aroma of spicey hops, light malts. Taste is complex blend of light malts, spicey hops, dry finish. Overall,though, rather low key, with no ’knock you over the head’ characteristics. A nice, complex, and well crafted brew. Nicely priced and bound to be a regulare for me if I can find it.

Aroma was just so so. Appearance was light yellow. Nice head that lasted. Flavor was kind of watered down, somewhat astrigent. Not quite what I expected from BP

UPDATED: NOV 2, 2011 Not likely fresh. Hop flavor almost non existant, just bitterness left behind. Mediocre.

UPDATED: SEP 18, 2011 Bottle. Light golden, hazy, average and mostly diminishing head. Moderate, malty and sweetish aroma, fruitiness and some bread - caramel, some grapefruit and citrus hoppyness. Body is medium, malty and sweetish flavor, some grapefruit and citrus hoppyness, some fruitiness and bread - caramel. Finish is average, malty and lightly sweetish, some fruitiness and grapefruit and citrus hoppyness, and faint bread - caramel. OK hoppyness, but bit too sweet and too much caramel considering the body.
