Thursday night growler. Pours an amber golden color with a half in. off white head that left some lacing. Aroma of roasted malts and fruity, citrus hops. Flavor is a light sweet caramel with a strong backbone of hops that leave that long dry finish. Med body, mild carb, wet texture, and dry feel. This is my go to pale. It helps that I’m right down the road and fresh beer rules..

Another in my Indiana series of tastings. I had never heard of this one when I saw it on the shelf. Very nice aroma and flavor. Overall, solid APA and worth being a session beer anytime.

12oz - Aroma is malty with some citrus hops. Pours transparent brown with a small head and good lacing. Flavor is cardboard hops, sweet caramel and a citrus twang in the back. Palate is tart and sticky. Not bad but something throws me off.

Bottle. Sweet floral hops aroma. Red amber color with a whispy off-white head. Bitter dominates the flavor, dry, biting but with a nice mouthfilling floral sweetness. Medium bodied. solid.

Pours a lightly hazy, dark caramel brown color. A foamy, beige colored head shows nice retention, leaving delicate ribbons of lacing behind. The nose shows a good deal of toasted caramel malts and glazed biscuit notes, balanced out by a decent amount of citrus and grassy hops. The flavor follows suit, with toasted, sweet caramel and some buttery toffee complementing the dry, citrusy, grassy hop billing. Well balanced, smooth, and easy to drink. Medium bodied. Finishes pretty clean. Perhaps a touch too sweet for a session brew, but nice nonetheless.
