UPDATED: JUN 13, 2022 1 pint 0.9 oz bottle rating. Maine Zoe showcases a beautiful deep semi-hazy red body with a densely bubbled white vanilla colored head. Scents of caramel, pine hops, rye bread, crackers. Maine really hits it out of the ballpark once again. I wish I lived closer where I could be spoiled by all of their wonderful concoctions.

UPDATED: APR 7, 2022 Pours a slightly hazy, red-amber, with big, lasting cream head. Aroma is bread, citrus, some hops. Flavor follows. Smooth and crisp mouthfeel.

UPDATED: MAR 28, 2022 Hazy medium brown color with an off-white head. Grassy herbal hop aroma. Caramel malt and pine hop flavors. Fairly potent bitterness from the hops which goes nicely with the caramel malt. May be the best amber ale I’ve ever had

UPDATED: NOV 18, 2021 Bottle from John's. Pours a dark amber hue with a medium white head. A nice soft caramel and citrus nose. Great palate. Sweet caramel, toffee, bitter hops at times, big oranges. Wow. Very good. The palate is divine.

UPDATED: AUG 11, 2021 Bottle 500ml. Pours amber the near white head. This is probably my favorite amber ale. Taste is mostly from the malts, Carmel, bread. But the hops kicks in with some fruity, citrus flavors

UPDATED: JUL 23, 2021 Coppery color pour with a tall, long lasting, frothy tan head that leave very nice lacing. It has a malty aroma and a hoppy finish. Notes of caramel, chocolate and bread along with a fruity citrus and pine finish. Very strong amber ale. It's a good Zoe!

UPDATED: MAR 1, 2020 Bottle. Dark, hazy amber with an off white head. Aroma is is hoppy like an IPA. The taste however, is unique. Sweetness is all through it but a slightly bitter finish.

UPDATED: FEB 7, 2020 500 ml. bottled 10/29/2019. Slightly foggy, chestnut brew with a creamy film of foam. Interesting aroma of pineapple upside-down cake with touches of cocoa, grapefruit and orange. Flavor has bread, orange, grapefruit, toffee, white pepper, toasted walnut and a touch of coffee. Medium body has medium-high carbonation that's almost too much but remains smooth enough. Easy drinking balance that finishes nutty and dry.

UPDATED: JAN 4, 2020 From tap. Clear dark amber copper color with off white head. Malty and hoppy aroma, grass, caramel, pine, light bread, light citrus. Sweet and bitter taste. Medium oily body with soft carbonation.

UPDATED: DEC 18, 2019 On tap. Hops aren't listed but this smells like Chinook to me. Pine/spruce/cedar, some citrus notes, with caramel, red fruit, roasted nuts. Fragrant, piney/sprucey hops linger through the finish. Delicious amber ale. Bottle a month plus later: not much to add, other than what a beautiful roasty malt this is. I remember the pretzel I was eating at the brewery while drinking this and now I want to go to there.
