Milwaukee Ale House Old Tankard Ale

Hazy Light Gold Coloring with White Skin. Sweet Malt and Hops Aroma. Initial Hit of Hops Flavoring, Quickly Giving Way to Dry Wheat and Sweet Malt Notes. Drinkable but Nothing Characterable About it.

Clear, nearly pale yellow in color with a creamy white wrung for the head. Brisk lemons, perfumey hops and lemon herbed croissants exemplify the bright and floral nature of the nose. Nice hoppy profile, quickly recessing to a low fat crescent roll flavor. Lemons, sourdough crust and sage add flavor character as well. In and out, over and done. Hops resonate moderately when it’s all come to pass. Decent.

Hazy yellow color with a thin head. Sour banana and hoppy aroma. Very light and dull hops for the flavor, with some dry wheat lingering in the background.

Hazy yellow body pale malt aroma with light floral and grassy hops. Oxidzed, stale hop and grainy pale malt in the flavor. Dry, stale finish with a light fruity hoppiness. This stuff pretty much sucks. It has a macro aura that drags it down.

Sampled this session ale. Supposedly, it’s based on a recipe from Pabst. They had an Old Tankard a long time ago. It pours to a hazy straw colored body with a thin white head. The aroma is hard to distinguish. I get hops and bitterness. English hops I think. I wish the bar was less smoky. The flavor is kind of a grassy and floral hop. Almost like an alfalfa or hay. Iced tea. Light barley, light tobacco. I’m digging this. The palate is lightly bitter, medium bodied, has a lingering flavor, a vibrant carbonation.
