COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed exclusively for El Verano, Danny Meyer’s taco bar. It features sweet orange peel in the kettle and dry-hopping with Simcoe, giving the beer a bright orangey aroma. Very nice with the tacos!

Tap @ Citi: honestly a very good APA. Pours a ornagy copper, leaving a full, thick, wet head. Taste is complex with some clear malt notes that are balanced with a mild spice and some citrus. Some pine notes, also some caramel... very drinkable, easy body.

The aroma is floral hops, some citrus, slight sweetness from caramel malt. The appearance is a red/gold color, with a white head. The flavor is reminiscent of a pale ale, citrusy, earthy, caramel. The finish is one of the nicer aspects of the beer, a refreshing citrus/grapefruit bitterness. Medium/thin mouthfeel. Decent overall.

Tap at Citi Field. Clearly the winner of the Citi Field beers. Aroma of spicy hops with a good dose of biscuit malt. Flavor again quite spicy as well as more grainy than the aroma would indicate from the malt base. Tasty.

Best at Citi Field. Aroma is sweet hops. Flavor similar. Refreshing and only one worth getting.

PilsnerPeter (3019) - Flushing, New York, USA - JUL 30, 2009
Tap at Copperfield’s: (and it’s only supposed to be at the stadium...HA!) Rusty golden pour with a dense white film of head. Grainy aroma with a touch of fruity esters and an empty papery citrus note. Decent mild carbonation- typical Brooklyn profile with some papery grains and a fruity ester note. The hops are there but very subdued with restrained citrus notes and a watered down berry note. All of these beers brewed for establishments around the city all taste quite similar.

LilBeerDoctor (2821) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 30, 2009
On tap at Citi Field. Pours amber with a thick white head. The best beer served at Citi Field, and the only one worth getting (unless you want to tick of course). Anyway, some citrus hops, toasted and caramel malts. Very drinkable, especially on a hot summer day. 6/4/7/3/14 (3.4/5)

goldtwins (4320) - Nesconset, New York, USA - JUL 24, 2009
@ Citi Field for a Met game. Had three of them and they are tasty. I wish this was bottled. Great orange and citrus aroma with enough sweet toasty malt to back it up. This goes for the flavor as well. The huge hop burps after were even great. Light-medium body with a nice hop finish and mild bitterness.

UPDATED: MAY 12, 2010 On tap at citi field during Paul McCartney show July 17th @ el verano. Pours brown copper like a brisk autumns eve. Nose is fresh hop. Taste is toasty and hoppy. Body is medium to medium light. Only served in plastic cup. Really damn good! I am the walrus. Ps. Cait is ugly

hophead75 (2008) - Largo, Florida, USA - JUN 28, 2009
On tap at El Verano Taqueria at Citi Field. Light amber in color with a medium off white head. Aroma of mild simcoe- citrus, as well as some toasted malt. Taste is more skewed towards the malty side, with toasted malts, some light caramel and pale malts. Hops are overall mild, medium bitterness. Light to medium bodied.

sleepylopes (318) - New York, USA - MAY 25, 2009
Clasic brooklyn but it does go well with the heat. This time the Italian vomit flavor does well with sweet malt and light orange top notes. Stands up to the heat. With a combo top of the 4th.
