4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Tap at brewery. Orange, slightly thick and foamy head. RIch garden aroma; unlike most of the others I actually did get some squash and zucchini here. Very interesting and surprisingly nicely bitter for something with no hops! Crisp, mellow, ingenious, and creative. Nicely done.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours and looks like a macro lager/pilsener. I didn’t get much aroma of squash. It’s tangy, highly carbonated & quite drinkable.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
A gruet sampled at RBSG at the brewery. Aromas of ripe summer squash and light malts. Very mild and drinkable. Nicely balanced. Worth trying.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Had on tap at Higgins in Portland after several other beers that night. Orangey color, unique aroma. The squash is definitely present, but not overpoweringly weird. A unique, interesting beer, definitely worth trying.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap at the Hair of the Dog brewery. For an organic brew this was quite amazing. The squash flavor, which seemed a repulsive idea to me at first, was very pleasing and subtle. Aroma had a nice spice to it which slightly carried through on the taste, making an almost belgian feel to it.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at Redbones. Pours a yellow/ orange hazy color. A bit of yeast in the aroma, malt and spice. I detected some kind of vegetable flavor but wouldn't have guessed squash. This has a Belgian feel, sweet almost like a tripel. Drinkable and good but not all that interesting.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Hazy golden in color with a small white head.Aroma is fruity,banana with touch of acidity(lactobacillus added?)Flavor is sweet & tart,clove,vanilla,spice with some mild acidic notes.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Contains squash, but tastes more like a barley wine. I was amazed at the complexity for such a small beer. Deep golden brown color, honey floral nose. The malt is quite sour, but the finish is well hopped and honey accented.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Tap @ Toronado. Dark golden color with a minimal head. The aroma included a light apple spice, clove, and cinammon character. Medium bodied, slightly sweet, and a spicy flavor.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
A copper color with a hop aroma and some fruitiness. The palate is smooth and nice with some flavor of hop and fruits.
