Commercial Description:
Formerly known as Pennant Ale '55...Brooklyn Pennant Pale Ale '55 is a classic English pale ale, brewed with the prized Maris Otter Malt and Fuggles, Willamette and Cascade hops. Maris Otter is an old malt variety that yields an incomparable biscuity flavor. Pennant is chesnut-colored, medium in body with a hearty malt palate and smooth hop finish. This beer is a tribute to Brooklyn’s world champion baseball team.

from log at friend’s party. Pours rather pale, orange in color with medium cream white head. Aroma of citrus, hops. Flavor is mellow caramel sweet, yet well balanced with citrus flavors of lemon, tangerine, and orange. Finish lingers, and is softly bitter from the hops. Overall, a well-balanced, if not a bit tame, brew. Great for hot summer days.

Overall Impression: I use to drink this one a lot a few years back, its a nice Pale, that is really easy to drink and still has a decent flavor, definitely a good choice if you are looking for something that’s pretty simple but still has a decent flavor...

Nice copper color with a copious white head. Weak aroma-mostly malts. Nice bitter taste with a balance between malts and hops. Decent offering overall.

Amber pour, white head. Crisp buttery malts, with a toasted biscuit touch and some caramel malts, finished with some spicy hops. And an irony aftertaste to kill all of it.

Bottle. Pours a clear light amber with a one finger head that lasts leaving good lacing. Aroma is biscuits, slightly fruity, citrusy, and floral with a hint of sweet malt at the end. Taste is biscuity, somewhat grainy, light sweet malt, and mild floral hops. Mouthfeel in a little thin with a very mild amount of bitterness. Good.

Cloudy, dark copper pour. Thick off-white head. A fruity nose, somewhat faint, but some hops can be detected. Hoppy flavor, hint of orange. Quite smooth and very drinkable. Pretty decent! I enjoyed this. Bought this bottle at Total Wine in Manassas, VA.

"Pour a darker golden brown with very small head. very little lacing, smelled of hops and little malts. Little bit of Caramel flavor, over all an okay beer. "
