On tap in Stevens Point. On a business trip out here, and I’ve gotta say, its a little scary how proud they are of this brewer. There are displays and ads everywhere, including a big display at the airport. The hotel where we stayed had a gift shop that sold almost exclusively Point Brewing merchandise. Anyway, the beer was OK. Drinkable, decent taste, but something was off about the palate.

Another one from these guys that I got from my brother. Poured into a pint glass. Pours a clear red with a frothy white head. Nose is sweet and fruity. Mild citrus, apple, honey. Crisp mouth, clean, subtle twangy finish. Sweet beer with sugar cookies, citrus, mild bitterness. Another good beer that is as simple as it is tasty.

Clear copper pour with an off white head. Faint nutty aroma. Faint nytimes in the taste with a hint of caramel at the end.

NOTE when sweating your ass off after cutting the grass; your rating of a beer will be higher!! It was amber, malty and easy drinking - did I mention it was hot outside

Suttree (4454) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - JUN 10, 2012
It is, indeed amber. No false advertising here. It smell, y’know, like and amber ale. Taste? amber ale. Not great, but you know what you’re getting...

BVery (4265) - Burnsville, Minnesota, USA - MAY 23, 2012
Bottle. Clear reddish-amber pour with a smaller white head. Nose is caramel malt and grass. Lighter palate. Taste is malt forward, but with a slight crisp hop element to balance. Still - rather dull.

DasBierChef (1080) - Hudson, Wisconsin, USA - MAY 5, 2012
Pours, as one would expect, an amber shade. Thin white head. Malty aroma and flavor.

MadIndian (2113) - Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 29, 2012
Bottle. Notes of sweet caramel malt, bread abd a very minimal detection of grass. Thin n the body with a sweet finish. It needs work.

bu11zeye (11113) - Frisco (Dallas), Texas, USA - APR 17, 2012
(12oz bottle) Pours a clear amber body with a small off-white head. Aroma of grain, caramel, bread, and earthiness. Flavor of caramel, grass, and grain with a mildly bitter finish.

Poured amber, of course and had a fair enough nose, though I would have liked more malt. Very thin across the palate.
