3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Glouglouburp (4784) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - JUL 29, 2011
In short: A basic full body fruity pale ale
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Clear golden-blond body topped by a very small white head
In long: Smooth nose of citrusy hops with a focus on apricots. Taste has basic soft bready pale malts, a bit of bread dough, apricots, a touch of honey. Bitterness level is in the low-medium range. This is a well brewed, really soft and well balanced pale ale that might be a bit too soft for the hophead that I am. A good beer from Earth, the brewpub with an environmental consciousness, and my rating was uploaded using 100% recycled electrons.

Draught at Earth during the Thursday pre-RBSG gathering. Poured a deep gold body and a small frothy white head. Aroma of crisp hops, bran flakes, honey and grass. Medium bodied with stronger carbonation and a quick fading after taste. Flavor of very crisp grains and slight sweetner, hops were crisp but blended into the malts nicely. Still just an Ahhhh beer.
