3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
(cask @ The Old Toad - Rochester, NY) Copper color with a thick and fluffy white head. Aroma is light and malty with a touch of hops and sweetness. Flavor is also very light with a nice malt base and a smooth and light hoppy finish at the end. Could use some more hops, but definitely a good session beer.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Cask at Blind Tiger Ale House. Golden color with a nice fluffy head. A very refreshing cask, a bit malty and citrusy. You taste some bitterness in the back of your mouth but didn’t really stand out.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cask at the Blind Tiger. Poured cloudy golden with a lot of foam. Looked good but the taste was too watery. There was some vanilla and citrus but basically the flavors were lacking. Not a bitter I would visit again.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
A very light-bodied, low alcohol beer, on Cask at Blind Tiger. Slightly sweet, and very light. The hops are well-blended but overall this is not very bitter at all. Summery, and goes down nearly like water. Heather and vinous notes - more malty that I would expect for a bitter.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cask at Blind Tiger - an off-balance bitter at best, because bitterness is about all you’ll find in this beer, a metallic kind of bitterness that reminds one of sucking on a penny - there really isn’t any grainy malt to counteract this as you might find in most bitters, especially British ones - thin and watery - uninspired.
