2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Small white head thats short lived, little lace. Clear amber color. Some slight C-hop notes as well as maltys. Body is med/light with a soft carbonation. Dry malt flavors, caramel with aged hoppy notes, slightly musty. Dry lightly fruity finish. I knew they couldnt handle this style. Bottle procured @statelineliquors.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Not a bad beer by any stretch, but a little harsh. The hops are true English, they add enough spice to the aroma and flavor, but they don’t dominate like an imperial ipa should. The sweet malts become way too sweet by the end and become cloying by the final sip.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
From tap at Sunset Grill. Pours hazy orange with a small white and lacing head. Aroma is fruity and crisp citrusy hoppy, light peachy. Bitter, slight herbal, pine and grapefruity hoppy. Ends dry and bitter, yet smooth.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A strong IPA, but one that has a certain lack of punch. There is a hoppiness overall, but the crispness of the hops in the finish seems to be weak. Generally good, but not great.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Rusty amber with a medium, bubbly beige head. Aroma is toffee, floral hops, tea leaves, spicy hops, caramel and soft citrus. Taste is caramel, toffee, tea leaves, spicy hops, fainter citrus, and a pleasant earthiness. This is definitely more on the English side of things. Body is medium with a soft, bubbly carbonation. Light lingering bitterness as well. Ends with more toffee, caramel, tea leaves, light citrus notes, spicy and earthy hops, and light floral notes.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Hazy amber/cider color; Medium slightly creamy body; Aroma of citrus hops, caramel malt, & some alcohol; Flavor of sweet malt, some yeast, caramel, pine hops, citrus, and alcohol; Finish is slightly bitter; Overall, sort of a mess (not well balanced) - alcohol too noticeable.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
The aroma has hops that are metallic, soapy, and citrusy. The malt is grainy and there is a hint of yeast. The appearance is amber with a foamy head. The taste is like the aroma. The palate is average for this style. Overall this beer might come close to fitting the style but is not that good.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
4/22/11. 12oz bottle. Clear red pour with a small off-white head. Malty alcoholic aroma with some butter in there. Malty bitter alcoholic flavor without much going on. Not great.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Even-toned honey hazy honey in color with a cm of white head. Light citrus, aroma with a bit of malty sweetness. Taste is pretty one-dimensional in terms of high limonene hop flavor and thin English yeasty sourness into the finish. $3/12oz
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Hoppy and malty mix in the aroma. Cloudy dark color with a small white head. Bitter beginning developing a mild sweet malt flavor in the end.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
I really like everything gearys makes and this is no exception. I think it’s their blend of malts that I like so much. The hops won’t exactly wow anyone, but I didn’t expect it to be a hoppy ipa. It’s really just a high alcohol pale ale... But if you did the gearys flavor you will love it,
