3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
clear orange, off white head. caramel, orange, citrus, toasted bread aroma. juicy malt flavour with orange zest, mild banana and caramel. not bad.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle, from Julio’s. good nose, sweet. Caramel, apple, bubblegum. Lite clean brownish orange color. Small head that faded quickly to a ring. Sweet flavors, like aromas with a little citrus, little soapy. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel, sweet, sour finish. Enjoyable enough, but it kinda like drinking history. What I mean by that is this is what alot of early micros were like, IMO. Is it possible to have signature creaminess? Seems to be in alot of Harpoons brews.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. I guess it’s alright. Nothing special. No bonus points, no penalties. Aroma was light. Some grassy hops, some malts. Maybe some clove but maybe I’m reaching. A little must going on in the nose as well. Flavor has a bit more going on than the aroma, but it’s still rather light. Not bad, mind you, just light. Some malts and fruits, a little hoppiness at first which fades into a semi-sweet maltiness around mid bottle. It finishes dry and slightly sour. It’s more of a beer you’d give to your less enthusiastic friends than to keep all to yourself.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Booooooring. It didn’t taste bad, per se, but I barely noticed I was drinking anything. The description is pretty accurate: light amber color, medium body, well balanced. No distinct hops or malt. Totally inoffensive and unassertive beer.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a cloudy gold with a thin, white head. Aroma of fruity hops and malt. Slightly sweet taste of raisins, malt, and a touch of citrus hoppiness. Palate is thin with a dissipating wateriness that leaves me wanting a bit more complexity at the end. Like this one for its drinkability. Decent.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
amber ale with quickly dissipating head making the glass look like I had alka seltzer... <G>.. The taste was good, though. I will be having more. (and probably today)
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
amber solor with mostly diminishing head. A slithy nuty flavor. Malty. its good.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pretty simple stuff. Pours amber gold. Caramel and vanilla in the front. Light fruit. Finish is dull. Decent.
