mgoy (343), Oak Brook, Illinois, USA Apr 12, 2009 Brooklyn Summer Ale is a clear golden ale with an initially beautiful white head that quickly leaves. The aroma and flavor are very fresh and easy to enjoy.
This is a very clean and easy to drink ale. A predictable summer ale. jimmack34 (560), Lancaster, Ohio, USA Mar 2, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours gold with a thin head. Smells a little faint. Hints of flowers, malts and citrus. Taste is smooth, light, citrusy, malty, bread, mild hop bitterness. Very refreshing. ROGUE (621), Newark, Delaware, USA Dec 19, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poured clear gold with a modest white froth that leaves some scattered lacing. Aromas of fresh bread, grass, and light citrus. Flavor is doughy and biscuity with a soft tartness. Just a touch of bitterness. Great balance, full-flavored while maintaining lightness. Mouthfeel is smooth and crisp with a clean finish. A great summer.

12oz bottle. golden pour, white foamy head. Light, crisp aroma. Floral hops in the nose, hint of fresh grass. light grain scent. dry, biscuity flavor. Light bodied. Nice balance. The flavor of barley is nicely weighed out with a mild hop bitterness that lasts a good while. Quite refreshing.

Some bread/wheat in the flavor along with the citrus, hops, and malt. Some hop bitterness in the finish and a nice flavorful aftertaste. A good summer ale. Jine (889), Nutley, New Jersey, USA Oct 12, 2008 5.24.08 tap at Andy’s. A nice light brew from Brooklyn who rarely if at all disappoint. Not as good as as the rest of their selection but something nice to have when those nights are getting warmer and longer. TheBeerMaster (100), Little Falls, New Jersey, USA Oct 12, 2008 Golden pour with a pretty small head. Aroma is citrusy. Interesting amount of hops for a summer ale. Great taste.
