Left Hand Sawtooth Ale

Pours a beautiful red with a substantial head. Medium lacing. Nose has hints of grapefruit and bread. Taste starts out fairly weak but builds up with malt and hops blending nicely. Mouthfeel is watery. Aftertaste allows the hops to break through, and lingers quite a while.

12 oz bottle pours a rusty golden color. Little head. Aroma is moderately hopped and kind of sweet/caramelly. Taste reflects the smell, kind of sweet while still retaining a bitter quality. Didnt have it chilled too cold which added to the drinkability. Smooth and full of flavor.

Pours amberish, rocky head. Toasted malts, nutty. Lingering hop finish, with some citrus. Good.

Strong molasses malts, with light chocolate malts, some light hops and a tangy butter, brown sugar aroma. Pour is a frothy, off-white head that goes away completely covering a light amber body. Taste is malty and a bit nutty upfront with some light hop bitterness in the finish. Watery mouthfeel, fizzy carbonation.

Nice deep golden color, small white head. The palate is creamy and the flavor is thick, a nice mellow bitterness on the finish. It’s quite good, but it’s a fairly safe, standard version of an ESB.

Amber/copper color with thin head. A somewhat hoppy citrus nose. Well balanced, smooth biscuit malt flavoring. Not as hoppy as my favorites, but a solid beer. Gonna have to find more left hand offerings.

Poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Pour produced a dark amber body with a medium off-white head which lingered throughout. Caramel and hops notes in its aroma, with signs of malt. Medium mouthfeel, with moderate bitterness, along with medium carbonation. Good hops flavor with a slight nutty sweetness. Not bad, a little metallic, though not bad at all.

on tap, good somewhat sweet tasting malt, carbonated about right, did not particularly notice the hops that they are talking about, first left hand in some time, usually a good brewery
