2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Average even from the bar. Slightly cloudy with a very subtle head. There was too much of something, but I couldn’t put my finger on it.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
(22oz bottle, thanks wickedpete) Small white head atop clear golden body. Aroma is moderately sweet, corn, cotton candy, light butter. Taste is medium sweet, corn, some straw, light cotton candy. Light-medium body, light syrup.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Hazy yellow body with a light, white head. Weak aroma of corn and wheat malt. The flavor is weak and watered down, corn, and a light weird bitterness comes through before the finish, which is a mouthful of buttered popcorn. Palate is too full.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
22oz bottle, courtesy of wickedpete. Thanks, Pete! Pours a hazy, tarnished golden color; off-white head with patchy web-like lacing. Honey, light bananas, and creamy, toasted malts in the aroma; crisp and pretty dry. Medium mouthfeel: lots of sweet, lightly toasted malts, touches of vanilla and honey; cereal and breadiness; pretty solid feel in the mouth and quite drinkable. Medium finish: toasted malts, touches of buttered popcorn and honey; nicely crisp and dry.
2.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Courtesy of wickedpete. Hazy pale body with a small white head. Bland nose with a bit of herbs and dough. The flavor is a bit too sweet, with some corniness, herbal hops and cracker. Medium body is rough with moderate carbonation.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught at the brewpub. Clean grainy taste with hints of yeast. Rich flavor and texture. Really well made.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draught @ Portsmouth Brewpub. Pours clear gold with a white head. Aroma is a bit of light malt, very restrained. Taste is a crisp maltiness and a slightly floral, lightly hoppy finish. Moderate carbonation and light bodied. Clean, drinkable.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the brewpub: This was a deep yellow in color with balanced hops and malt in the nose and mouth. Simple yet refreshing and very drinkable.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Light haze. Straw colour. Light maltiness on the nose. Some citrusy hop and light malt on the palate. Crisp, dry finish. Not the sort of beer that lends itself to excessive analysis, but a good, refreshing example of the style.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught, sample @ brewpub. Honey color, small white head. Grainy aroma is fresh and nice. Lovely array of flavors but slight huskiness. A touch of honey too. Is decent, quaffable, and aptly named.
