Bottled version of this brew showed up at the bar I work at on Friday. One of the perks of being a bartender is you can get a few "shift drinks" after closing. I had a Brooklyner Weisse first and then decided to give a Pious Ale a try. My sampled poured flat in the glass with no aroma, or flavor. Hops were long gone and I was not impressed. I read here the brewery is out of business so I can only guess how old these beer actually are. The Grey Lodge Pub has four cases of Pious Ale, I have a feeling we’ll have these beers in our fridge for some time to come.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Strongly hopped ale. A tad much for me. Nice amber color with a good head. Strong hoppy flavor. Finishes with a tangy dry acridness.

I have not had this beer in a while, I’t is a tasty Pale, nice hop bite.

Not bad. Nice flavor. My favorite of all Oldenberg brews.

Tried this at the Cincinnati (N.Kentucky) Airport; what a way to spend a layover. The beer was extremely well-hopped - aroma- and flavor-wise. Had a slightly malty, sweet ’backdrop’ for which the fresh and tasty hops were staged. Def one of the best beers I’ve had in an airport. If you’re ever in the Cinci airport, head over to Concourse C (I think it was). A really impressive brew.
