Dry golden-hazed blonde ale could pass for light-bodied Farmhouse ale. Eye-squinting citric-soured longevity and dark floral bouquet impede mossy herbal whim. Mild resinous hop-spiced bittering secures lemon-seeded apricot-peach-apple souring to lemongrass finish.

Rating: 2.5

Pour thin gold-hazed moderate body slowly or risk overt carbonation. Cat urine aroma, astringent alcohol smudge, and murky yeast funk bring off-putting opulence to dry pepper-spiced raw-honeyed citric-soured white wine billow. Tart lemonade, green apple, and white grape illusions underscore mild orange peel serenade. But putrid odorous opening spells trouble.

More sour than sweet in 4-month old bottled version, fizz-popped hazy golden moderate body brings tart lemon peel bittering to floral, herbal, and grassy hops. At midst, teasing candi-sugared sweetness folds into vinous yellow grape esters, unripe orange rinds, and yellow peach skins. White-breaded backdrop softens citric illusions, allowing dry straw-hay-barnyard parch to gain influence. Touch of vodka or gin liquoring in deep recess.

HIGH & MIGHTY BEER OF THE GODSPour slowly sunny yellow-hazed pearly-headed blonde ale to avoid over-carbonation. Bark-dried orange peel and grapefruit rind bittering reaches tart hard candied center, enlivening white peach, pineapple, and quince fruiting. Herbaceous twang lingers through ascending peppery-hopped lemon seed souring.

Pour slowly highly carbonated white-headed blond. Resilient candied butterscotch banter lends laid-back elegance to mild medicinal mouthfeel, but subdued citric-spiced finish gets a tad soapy.

Dry vegetal surge depletes lemony peach tartness and tenuous floral backdrop of soapy, light-bodied, unbalanced blonde ale.

Rating: 3.5

Tags:

Perky hops enliven sweet-candied whiskey malts and yeast-honeyed wheat, creating sugared wafer mouthfeel. Fig-date souring acquires butter pecan illusion caressing trifled water-crisped barleywine finish ’til disintegrating expeditiously.

Rating: 3.5

Hazy yellow-orange medium body with yeasty viscosity yields salient honey-dipped banana fizz outlining clove-coriander hem and prudent nectarine-apricot tang. Mighty citric hop zest and moderate herbal notch add further resiliency.

Rating: 2.5

Tags:

Pleasant light-bodied clear straw summer seasonal places sharply spiced lemony hop tingle above paltry sourdough serenity. Dewy, grassy earthiness and trifling floral tinge tease coriander-backed banana-quince wisp.

Rating: 4

Oak-aged dark amber Flemish-Belgian-inspired ale honoring former World War II French brewery pits sour chocolate malts against dry prune and unripe quince. Floral hops decorate backdrop, yeast sediment coats bottom, cumulative berry-citrus tang increases effervescence, and white grape tannin brings suitable acridity.

Rating: 3.5

Lightly hazed golden ‘Biere De Garde’ spreads musty yeast above spicy citrus. Deceptive moldy fungi waft and dank cellar whisk feel right juxtaposing tidy lemon rind souring and peppery-hopped ginger-spiced clove continuance. White peach, banana bread, pear, and quince illusions round out earthen clay-like backdrop.

Rating: 3.5

“Golden spelt”" Belgian-style pale ale gives dried banana frontage a mild hop-spiced bitterness and clove-backed floral accent. Whimsy wheat wafer sweetness dangles from moderate-bodied interior.
