COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Apple Ale sings with the fresh crisp taste of Wisconsin Apples. Our brewmaster begins with a brown ale base employing Wisconsin farmed wheat and a blend of Cortland, MacIntosh and Jonathan apples. Our apple growing friends squeeze them especially for this brew. Expect this ale to pour a beautiful copper color. The fresh bouquet of Apple will rise to meet you even before the glass touches your lips.

Bright and clear amber. Big fresh apple nose. Tight champagne carbonation makes it lively and crisp

I could drink this stuff easier than I could water. This beer is cutting it close, and is right on par with their other fruit beers, mabye even better. Wow, this is tasty, tasty stuff.

tom10101 (1045) - Quebec, CANADA - APR 20, 2013
Bottle (12 oz). From northropfrye, thanks Andrew! Clear golden/amber with little head and no lacing. Aroma of sweet apple, slight spices and slight tart notes. Taste is sweet, but not cloying and dominated by apples with slight spices, brown sugar and slight acidic presence. Medium body. Moderate carbonation. No alcohol (not surprising at 3,8% abv). Extremely drinkable and quite complex for a beer with such a low abv. Really fruity. Very good!

jonno (1994) - JAPAN - APR 10, 2013
Wow. Sweet but never cloying it has just the right amount of vibrant apple flavour. A hint of tartness, but this is all sunshine and fun. 3.8? wow.

bytemesis (1400) - Sunnyvale, California, USA - APR 9, 2013
Bottle. Pours clear amber with a small creamy off-white head and decent lacing. Aroma is green apple and not much else. Flavor is apple as well, medium sweet and lightly tart. Medium body, low carbonation; nice enough, but why not just make (or drink) a cider?

RobertDale (1881) - Lansing, Kansas, USA - APR 6, 2013
12 ounce bottle. Thanks Jeffrey! After the pour it looks like apple cider with a small white head. Aroma of fresh apples. Taste is apples and caramel. Well done Fruit Beer!

RBJG2. Aroma is apple pie, sugary. Tastes great, apple again, crisp. Pretty nice, but I was wrecked at this stage.
