Cisco Grey Lady

A tasty, relatively light beer. Had from the tap at Rattle n Hum. Pours a nice amber-gold with a light, white head. Nose of citrus and light florals. Flavor is slightly bitter and sour, with some yeasty character and some spiciness. Crisp finish. Pretty good.

Bottle shared by JW77. Gold pour, white head. Spicy and yeasty aroma leads to a fairly watery beer. Some wheat and spices are evident, but not enough body or flavor to be a very good representative of the style.

Tap @ Publick House, Brookline, Mass. Pours a clear gold with a decent white head. Aroma is yeast, citrus, and a slight bit of clove. Taste is yeast up front, with a citrus/yeast/clove ending to it - overall the palate was a tad on the watery side, which was unfortunate. I wanted to like this, but it could be much more than it is.

First 2/3 poured clear yellow and tastes light and refreshing with great citrus elements. Last 1/3 pours a huge amount of yeast and looks like 2 parts milk and 1 part orange juice. Wonderfully chewy and yeasty.

I had Cisco Grey Lady at Franks Italian restaurant in New York. The appearance is a cloudy yellow with a thick, airy white head. The aroma is light and spicy with some sugar syrup. The flavor is sweet, almost mimicing a shandy. I did not enjoy this beer at all.

Pours a straw yellow color with a white head. Aroma is malty, spicy, and a hint of honey. Flavor is fruity, tea, spicy, with a bitter finish.

Reviewed 6/1/2009 (bottle 53degF): Pours a very clear, very pale yellow colored body, looks like a cider. Small wispy head, white in color, very quickly diminishing. Effervescent aroma once swirled, some citrus and light fruit, like pear. Some funkiness too. Some funky taste, drying. Malty sweet, with a pretty clean finish. Not very flavorful. Waiting to warm. Funky fruity flavors, not my thing.

22oz bottle–the head dissipates to a white ring and hazy straw color. Aroma is bready, yeasty, spice (cardimum?), floral, secondary sweet grain. Taste is pear, bready, yeasty, spice (cardimum?), floral, secondary sweet grain/wheat/light malt, earthy. Easy, towards medium body.
