Wulfstan (509), California, USA May 8, 2008 Updated: Jun 9, 2008This is really nice, smooth, yet tasty. Darkish amber/copper-gold, it has a medium, off-white head that slowly diminishes to a wispy top. The aroma is bread, grain, flowery with a light earthiness, hint of pine; it’s a bit like a more malty Czech lager or an English bitter. The taset is similar, but with only a very light hoppy bitterness. It’s mostly light malty with toasted grain and hint of caramel but with nice, juicy hop flavours, a light lemony quality and very juicy. It is lightly sweet and tartly juicy with a light appetizing bitterness becoming noticeable near the finish. gws57 (1131), Saint Charles, Illinois, USA Aug 4, 2006 Got this one bottled at the brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Dark yellow, slightly hazy pour with a filmy white head. Strawberries and flowers in the nose. Not much going on early on, typical hop sharpness with a creamy mouthfeel, but quickly rolling into a very pleasant fruitiness with notes of peach and apple. Finishes very clean with no aftertaste and no bitterness. This is a very smooth brew. It’s a bit blander early on than I typically like in my ales, but I really liked this one alltogether. prosqtor (408), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA Aug 8, 2007 A very drinkable, almost light-wheat ale. Hazy color, nicie taste with some hops and fruit but not too much. JPDIPSO (4863), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA Mar 27, 2003 Golden color with a thick milky white head. Very mild hops and malt aroma with touch of light fruit. Dry milky malt flavors with a floral hoppy finish. Finish also has a touch of fruitiness that adds to the complexity. This ale, while not overly exciting, is a very good session type ale. unclemattie (2370), Georgia, USA Jul 25, 2007 RATING #800: 12oz bottle from a 8pk sampler. Golden orange/ yellow color. Great lacing. Aroma of honey and malts. It has an ODD, nutty, spicy flavor. A sweet fruitness of goosebeeries. Finishes with florals and maltiness. Very low bitterness (almost non-existent). POST SCRIPT: As I wrote these comment I did not know the style. It shows on the bottle as simply An Ale. A Mile Ale is fitting. This beer is very unique. redlem (1155), Illinois, USA May 19, 2003 Updated: Oct 27, 2003Clear honey color with a medium white bubbly head. A subtle musty English hop aroma with a malt background. A malt flavor, chewy, again an English feel. Finish is dry. Very drinkable. balke13 (156), MIssoula, Montana, USA Mar 18, 2004 medium sizedc white head. aroma of sweet grass and mild maltiness. very malty flavor with a dry finish and hints of fruity sweetness...very refreshing. another great brew from Lakefront!!!! Rciesla (3500), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA May 28, 2009 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.
