3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20Bottle (oddly shaped). This is a nice bitter/pale ale. Slight toastiness to the malt, mixed variety of hops. I think i detect Willamettes more than the others, or maybe they’re just all balanced. But the malt is where it’s at. Perhaps a bit more carbonation than Is like for the style; I can’t help but expect it to be British, but it isn’t.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Aroma of malt, grape and some sitrus. bronce with tiny white head. Sweet and some sourness with medium carbonation. Boring
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Amber pour w/ very small off white head and no lacing. Aroma is fruits - plum, raisin, cherry - underlying a heavier bready malt nose. Crisp carbonation and thin/med body. Caramel/biscuit malts give it a good backbone and some hop bitterness come in, but not much. Nothing exciting but it’s a decent session brew. Best let it warm slightly to draw out some malt character.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours a pale amber color with thin white head. Some malt and bread aromas. Malty with some bread and hop flavors. Mild bitterness and medium light body.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Orange with a white head. Aroma is bread and flowers. Flavor is flowers, oranges, biscuits, light pine, grass and low bitterness. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Red colour. Citric and grassy aroma. Medium bitterness only, and dissipates quickly. Probably a great beer enjoyed with grilled food, but not that interesting on its own.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear Copper Color, Good Head, No Lacing. First sip has some bitterness and hoppy finish, faint pine. After first sip it does not last and blends. Easy to drink and is ok. Otherwise average and forgettable.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle from Wegmans Sterling - pours amber with a white head. Aroma faintly malty. Taste pretty weakly bittersweet. Overall, meh.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Faint aroma - a touch of caramel and bread. Orange-copper color. It has an soft, almost sweet bitterness with okay hop presence. Medium body, easy drinker. Red Hook’s older recipes seem so moderate compared with new beers.
3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle To Glass, pours nice transparent orange. Smells a bit on the yeaasty side but it is not that apparent in the taste. A Very thin beer and goes down easy
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear orange with decent head. Bready aroma. Bread taste as well with the slightest bit of toffee that is immediately cut by the hops. Full mouthfeel and a slightly sweet finish.
