Jul 26, 2007 My Bottom Line:
This serviceable Altbier provides polite peachy caramel to play with a few wooden hops, but in the end, even though it’s clean and drinkable, it remains Hakodate Beer’s less convincing recipe.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam skirts the hazy amber.
-Body is lean to light, still fine for the style.
-The wooden hop finish is well positioned.
-Citrusy fruitiness aids drinkability.
-If it were as malty as their Ale, we’d be in business.
On tap at the brewery restaurant.
