Bomber from cheese shop des moines..shared with wit wickers.. pours light copper with apple makty alcohol arona..taste is bitter alcohol metallic.. not my style

650ml bottle. Minimally cloudy golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Floral hoppy and yeasty aroma. Taste is bitter hoppy, minimally sweet malty, floral notes. Really nice.

This and Red Barn (Lost Abbey) are my two favorite saisons. Jack is a smooth, balanced delight. Floral hops dance under your nose. Peppery-focused grassy and floral hop notes sweetly permeate your taste buds with a nice mouthfeel no less. The pepper lingers, and the sweetness is joined by a slight bitterness. Just wonderful. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle pours pale gold with foamy white head. Skunk, grapefruit, pepper, floral. High bitterness, light sweetness. Body is light and lively. A bit too peppery and acidic on the tail end.

Small off-white head over clear orange-golden beer; not much carbonation visible. Aromatic hops’ nose, bit of caramel, faint green herb as parsley. Not very powerful. Quite bitter taste. Flavour as from a tisane, dry straw-like tea. Point of (dried) citruspeel. Feels much more carbonated than it looks. Quite slick, but hardly more than light bodied. Drinks away easily, and reading the blurb hints they’ve hit what they wanted. I just can’t find it very exciting - and I’m already happy its not called filet américain...

Bottled. Pours slightly hazy and deep golden with a medium sized white head. Leaving a nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of yeast, citrus, grass and caramel notes. Sweet flavor, that nds up more dry and decent bitter. Medium bodied, oily texture and soft CO2. A lovely IPA. ★★★★

Bomber. A clear medium to dark blonde beer, with an average sized, frothy, lacing, mostly lasting, white head. The aroma is lightly malty (toasted grain), lightly to moderately hoppy (flowers, herbs, grapefruit, lemon), lightly to moderately yeasty (cobwebs, barnyard), with notes of orange, honey, spices. The flavor is moderately sweet, moderately acidic, lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, lively carbonation, dry, long finish with moderate to heavy bitterness, lightly alcoholic. Nice rendition, packed with many rustic flavors/aromas and really enjoyable. My favorite from Pretty Things, so far.

Pale yellow color with a thin head. Aroma of toast. Taste doughy toast. A nice saison. Sessionable.

Mild nose with some hints of white pepper. Pale thin head. Clear yellow color. Hoppy fruity taste with some hints of pears. More than average hoppiness.

Bottle. Clear yellow. Pine, citrus, and spice. Bitter finish, decent carbonation ad sweetness. Not bad but not exciting ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
