3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Hazy golden orange with a large head, good lacing and retention. Aroma is very fruity with grapefruit, pears, bread, light caramel and yeast notes. Flavor brings this, slightly watery finish despite a very enjoyable flavor profile. Light bitterness. Loved it other than the relatively weak body.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours golden with a thin wispy off-white head. Notes of cascade, citrus, lemon, pale malt, lightly bitter herbs. Medium bodied, lightly resinous with lush carbonation.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Aroma of citrus dish liquid. Infection? Hard to say. Off-bitter apricot flavor, yet again with the dishsoap. Lighter orange, hazed with suspension. Light body, easy to drink in spite of a bittering finish. Not so great.
1.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 8/20
Pours a very light golden color with quite a bit of cloudiness. Has a slight amount of head on it. I find it slightly skunky with a bit of a soapy and long-lasting palate.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draught at DBGB, New York. Clear golden/amber - offwhite head. Nice bitterness. High bitterness. Toasted. Nutty. Grassy. Piney. Caramel. Ok. High bitter finish.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
12oz Bottle, purchased at Downtown Liquor - Somerville, MA. Clean, relatively bland and straightforward ale aroma. Body is thin. Texture and depth are absent. There’s a vague gauze of light minty, leafy, and spicy hop character, but it’s not extensive and not all that interesting. Clean, but un-captivating.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
From tap at Jacob Wirth. Pours clear and golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is fruity and crisp hoppy. Crisp fruity, bitter and lingering fruity. Crisp and bitter finish.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Solid pour, head lasts awhile. Fruity, musky smell and taste. Goes down nicely wiht various sweet citrus overtones. Feeling apricot and peach the most. Golden hay with shaded sun coloring. A fine sipping microbrew here. Goes well with sharp cheese and tarts but thats your perrogitive. Hay feel in the aftertase brings feelings of open fields of hops and malt. A delicate treat on the pallate.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
A cloudy golden brew with very good carbonation out of the bottle. Light citrus aromas. Bready flavors with good fruit-spice hop balance. Clean finish. A good one!
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Sample. A bit malty with strong hop bitterness. The flavors didn’t seem to have blended as well as they should have. Maybe this was a young batch.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: MAY 11, 2011 Hazy amber; frothy white head. Juicy oily pungent hop aroma. Flavor - same; bready taste, crisply hopped. Very nice pale ale, for my money, best beer from High & Mighty so far.
