On tap at Ambulance, soft-tongued Czech-styled golden pilsner lets sweet corn sugaring penetrate delicate herbal lemon musk in mildly creamed nitro-like setting. A bit tame taste-wise, but crisply clean easygoer’s one of the most sessionable pils around.

14TH STAR RASPBERRY VERMONTER WEISS
Easygoing pink-glowed ‘sour wheat’ leaves subtle salted raspberry tartness upon mild yogurt-milked oaken vanilla tannins and rosé, white zinfandel and pink blush wining as well as distant grapefruit-cranberry souring for spritzy fruited seltzer-like Berliner Weiss.
14TH STAR COMPANY E NEW ENGLAND IPA
Sunshiny orange-peeled grapefruit vibrancy enhanced by mild piney hop resin and subtle floral-spiced alacrity of easygoing NEIPA. Spritzy lemon zesting tingles tertiary pineapple-peach-tangerine tang.
14TH STAR RECRUIT GOLDEN ALE
14TH STAR VALOR ALE
Tropical citrus fruiting graces wood-dried grassy hop resin and wispy black tea-like musk above caramel-roasted amber graining of pleasingly midstream flagship offering. Juicy grapefruit rind bittering contrasts sweet orange peel tang for hop-forward IPA-derived ale.
14TH STAR B-72 DOUBLE INDIA PALE ALE
On tap at Poor Henry’s, juicily citric ‘hop bomb’ explodes in your mouth with sharp lemony grapefruit tang gaining dainty orange-peeled mango, pineapple, peach, guava and cantaloupe tropicalia to counter dankly resinous hop oiling. On tap at Ambulance, honeyed fruit spicing reached herbal piney hop dankness as even-keeled tropical fruiting reigned.
14TH STAR TRIBUTE DOUBLE IPA
14TH STAR MAPLE BREAKFAST STOUT W/ MAPLE SYRUP
Interestingly offbeat Breakfast Stout combines smoky Vermont maple syrup with bittersweet black coffee-chocolate murk, honeyed molasses undertones and sour toffee wisp above recessive hop char, but needs creamier thickness for better resonance. May need better balance of intangible adjuncts.
