Pumphouse Brewery and Restaurant Reviews

Travlr	3.8 Pumphouse Rye & Mighty Draft atb tyhe source. Almost clear very pale yellow color thick white head. Aroma of lightly spiced straw. Taste is spiced citrus. Nice Saturday, September 2, 2023
onceblind	2.9 Pumphouse Overflow Hazy light gold with a thin foamy white head. Delicate earthy golden grainy nose with light pine and dry hoppy leafy tones. Smooth body that’s soft and drinkable with wheat and mellow leafy hop tones. Indistinct hoppy flavors with mild bitterness. Plays it a little too safe. Friday, April 7, 2023
onceblind	3.6 Pumphouse DDH Hooligan Clear golden hue with a thin foamy white head. Big sticky malty toffee aroma with pine and dank leafy hoppy juice. Off the bat a little VDK in the aroma shows up in the flavor as well. But beyond that there’s a lovely full pale malty body that’s golden and firm, with hoppy notes of pine and cantaloupe and citrus juice. Friday, April 7, 2023
onceblind	3.5 Pumphouse Flashpoint Clear slightly tarnished golden hue with a thin sticky white head. Aroma has some pale malt and slight biscuitiness, with earthy resinous citrus bitterness and a little overripe peach nuance. Smooth balanced flavor that’s pale malty with gentle citrusy resinous bitterness, pine, and lingering earthy hoppiness. Friday, April 7, 2023
onceblind	3.7 Pumphouse Igniter Pale Ale Lightly hazy bright golden hue with a thin sticky white head. Nice mellow aroma of Centennial hops with hints of orange and grapefruit rind, light pine, gentle biscuity malt and slight bread crust. Nicely balanced flavor that’s golden pale malty, hints of bread crust, light pine, light grapefruit and moderate bitterness overall. Clean and nicely made, if a bit “retro”. Friday, April 7, 2023
onceblind	3.6 Pumphouse Czech Mate Clear bright golden with a thin sticky white head. Delicate lightly golden grainy bready aroma with a Lagery touch and light verdant grassy hops. Crisp semidry flavor that’s given and very lightly grainy with a clean lager finish. Could use a slightly bit more hoppiness on the flavor but it’s clean and delicate anyhow. Friday, April 7, 2023
