3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20Growler
Clear gold with a sticky, long lasting white head.
Aroma is resiny pine hops and a bit of sweet malt.
The flavor is pretty washed out and the body is very thin.
Really disappointed. I will try again if I find this on draft.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Growler from The Market on Washington. Okay, this is not an IPA. I had no idea what style was intended, so I had no preconceptions and no disappointment. This seems more like a dry, hoppy light golden ale. It’s very light, crisp and sessionable. Clean grassy citrus notes with a dry crackery finish. There are hints of lemon. Light, clean grapefruit highlights the slight palate. Great summer brew! (Not an IPA)
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Growler from a beer shop in Nashville. Rad that they do growler fills. Pours a darker red/brown with light white head. Aroma is grass, malt, hay and some wet metal. Taste is slight grassy hops, very malty (from a tap) and some iron/metal notes. Overall, I wanted to love a brewery called Calfkiller but sad this doesn’t live up to my internal mind hype.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
This ones a bit confusing. Advertised as an IPA but actually the beer is very yellow pale wheat/lager color. Taste is equally as head scratching as I can’t pinpoint a particular flavor of this beer. Grass, woodsy, wheat tones initial sip and a clean, crisp lager-like finish..Little hop characteristics in taste. Head is white and very foamy and lacing strung about the glass nicely. Overall a head scratcher but still drinkable I suppose
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Sampled at the 2012 East Nashville Beer Festival. Served by a wizard. Grassy and cereal, with notes of grassy hops. Dry woody finish. Lots of sticky hops.
