Taster - Grey Parrot Brewery - Long Beach WA
Aroma – Light malt aroma with a super small lingering of fruit in the nose.
Appearance – Gold in color, clear with a thin head.
Flavor – Had a nice light blonde flavor the fruit had a very hard time getting through this was very very light in flavoring for this beer.
Palate – Light Mouthfeel, Nice texture with a dry finish.
Overall – Very uneventful beer. The beer lacked character and real flavor. If it was just a blonde it would be Ok but as for a fruit beer this beer was not very good at all the flavor was very lackluster almost non existent.

Hazed gold pour, white head. Aroma and flavor have a mild cranberry fruitiness with a lactic, sour character. Tartness is mild, the body is light. Pretty refreshing and straightforward.

I wrote this down as Cranberry Kriek--so may be mistaken, though it tastes decidedly more like a Cranberry Pale Ale. Light orange with little head. Easy tartness in the nose, quite clean. Subtle, but distinctly mellowed cranberry into a pale ale body with cranberry tannic bitterness. Subdued fruit and tart flavors. Nice.

This was actually a Cranberry Pale Ale. Interesting character here. Light and somewhat sour with a distinct fruitiness. Not too strong, but smooth and light.
