On tap at The Helm, smoothly crisp double dry-hopped Imperial version of Orange Starfish lets vibrant orange-peeled white grapefruit entry gain brisk lemon zesting and candied mango-pineapple-guava pep over mild oats base. Bright Citra-Galaxy hop combo reveals silken citrus nature for crushable IPA.
On tap at Taphouse 15, dry earthen barnyard rusticity raids scurried lemon sourness as mild cellared fungi mossing spreads beneath.
On tap at Growler & Gill, white winey Nelson Sauvin hops redirect wavering kolsch variant as green grape, gooseberry and guava tartness upends moderate lemon pith bittering, herbal white peppering and mild green tea sneak. Mineral grained pilsner malts and dry rye breading placate dextrin starching. Offbeat.
On tap at Plank Pizza, unspecific English-styled pale ale lets nebulous orange-oiled dried fruiting nip at dewy fungi molding atop crystal rye malting.
Spritzy lemon-rotted orange oiling and tannic green grape salting pick up mild creamy froth above white bread base in mildly bitter Casacade-Hallertau hop setting but may lack stylish specificity.
Conventional Vienna lager lacks assertiveness and distinct flavor profile. Sweet dewy peat seeps inside murky dried fig spicing, tingly candied apple smidge and lemon candied remnant as distant Tettnang hop earthiness contrasts toasted amber graining.
On tap at Plank Pizza, muskily earthen grained Czech-style pils gains herbal lemon twist as hay-dried leathering and grassy hop astringency beckon.
Soft-tongued nutty dark chocolate creaming settles upon dark-roast hop char. In the backdrop, Blackstrap molasses bittering engulfs espresso, cola, walnut and burnt wood illusions.
Sedate white grapefruit-spiced orange peel zesting and juicy pineapple tang embrace hazy golden NEIPA. Ample pine sapping seeps into grassy hop astringency and mild fennel herbage until its oated wheat creaming reaches the salty bottom.
Straight-ahead American wheat ale less involving than its German hefe or Belgian wit counterparts. Complacent orange-dried lemon oiling and peppery phenolic sudsiness reach delicate cracked wheat base, picking up sour apple, unripe banana and Bosc pear snips.
Tidy lemon-splashed yellow grapefruit and orange peel zesting (neither tangy nor bitter) caresses resinous pine wisps and spicy pale malting of golden hazed (6% ABV) moderation. Another trusty IPA-hopped pale ale.
Fizzy lemon pep, prickly phenol spicing, floral herbed musk and sweet white breading will please simple Italian, Mexican and Czech pils lovers. Sessionable suds.
