Lakefront Cattail Ale

Pours a yellow gold with a white head. Aroma of yeast and malts. Flavor of malts with some yeast. Too bubbly for my liking.

Floral aroma with a hint of skank. Gold pour with a nice topper. Cute label that looks like a greeting card. A tasty brew whose syle is a little hard to pin down. It turns out to be a mild ale, which I have not had very much. Malty sweetness, a little caramel, some peppy hops. Not outstanding, but underrated.

Aroma is fairly strong, malty and yeasty, with just a hint of lemon and maybe even a touch of vegetable. It pours a clear amber golden with a typical white head. Flavor is mouth-filling, not complex but satisfying and refreshing; it is mainly malty with some yeasty tones and more than a hint of hops but very little bitterness. Texture is tingly and fizzy, like any good beer.

Bottle. Pours a hazy orange amber body with a thin white head. Floral sweetness and a brett y aroma, hmmm this one may have picked up an infection, very nice. Dry floral leather and some light fruits. Simple and very enjoyable.

Bottle. Pours gold with a white head. Light hoppy aroma with some grainy and sweet malts. The flavor has lightly sweet malt with some fruitiness and light hops. Drinkable, decent. Certainly sessionable.

12oz bottle from a Lakefront mix pack. Another disapointment from Lakefront. I don’t know what it is about these guys but all their beers seem off in some way. Maybe they use cheap ingredients or maybe some strange strain of yeast. Whatever it is I can’t wait to get through this mix pack and be done with them.

Golden pour with a small white head. Aroma of grass and hay. Flavor is somewhat soapy up-front but it does fade to a more bisquit flavor toward the middle. Goldings lend a cardboardish flavor towards the finish which isn’t really surprising or unpleasant. OK beer.
