Jan 29, 2010 super-drinkability is the main feature of the mt. lee. it has a nice abv, a pretty nice aroma and mouth feel, but ultimately it’s the balanced flavor and superior drinkability that make this beer stand out.

This was my final pint of the day before moving onto the Bluegrass Brewing Company. A decent enough way to wrap up the afternoon it was not quite what I was expecting. Pretty average overall I don’t think I would choose this over the mild or Old 15 if either was available. California Commons might be hard to find for a reason.
Aroma / Appearance - A half finger dense white head sat above the lively golden body. Very transparent it smelled of lemon zest, pepper and apples. A wheaty bse held everything together along with a crisp hoppiness. It definitely gets better as it warms; let it get to room temperature for maximum enjoyment.
Flavor / Palate - Strongly bitter it is more aggressive than I anticipated. Sticking to the back of tongue it gives more of an impression at warmer temperatures. Too harsh for my tastes (at least for a non IPA) this is an interesting experiment. If hoppy low alcohol beers are your thing order a pint. If not check out the other offerings instead.

Jul 11, 2008 Draft at the brewpub: poured a cloudy dark orange with a medium sized beige head. Mild hop aroma with some candyish notes. Flavor is fruity, mild sweetness initially followed by a slightly tart twang. Mild citrus. Earthy hops with a nice bitter finish. Good.
