Lifeless light-bodied golden ale (in a can) retains nasty corn malt astringency and dreary veggie-rotted citric spritz to musty wheat-husked white-breaded bottom. Lemony orange misting lost in the mix.

OLD FORGE OVERBITE INDIA PALE ALE
Bold grapefruit-peeled orange rind bittering gets sweetened by wheat-honeyed caramel malting. Musky oily hop pining deepens fresh evergreen forestry, juniper berry bite and black tea swipe. Zesty citric finish picks up pineapple, pear and mango tease.
OLD FORGE CELESTIAL BLONDE ALE
Deranged medium-bodied Belgian pale ale brings sinewy sourdough yeast breading to sugared pastry sweetness, shunning typical candi-sugared citric spiced styling. Soft-watered texture daintily affects tertiary lemon custard, candied orange, green grape, honeyed apple and bosc pear trinkets.
RIVERTOWNE GRATEFUL WHITE ALE
Compelling canned Belgian wit retains delicate grassy-hopped citric mist, frothy pearl head and palest straw body. Sweet orange peel briskness seeps into coriander-spiced lemon candied tartness, subtle mango-juiced grains of paradise tropicalia and mild green banana starching. Subtle yeast pungency picks up lightly salted white peppering to winsomely contrast refreshing citrus spritz. Perfection.
3 GUYS & A BEER’D CARBOND’ALIEN
Audaciously soured pale ale loads fig-dried date and plum serenity atop tart lemon-pitted acridity for perfectly askew stylistic rendition best served to seasoned sour ale suckers. Spritzy lemon zest adds misty freshness.
3 GUYS & A BEER’D WHEAT THE PEOPLE
Closer to a rustic American wheat ale or dry-hopped citric-soured saison than a banana-clove-fronted hefeweizen, bringing dry plantain and tart lemon fruiting to raw-honeyed herbal spices. Wildflower, lemongrass, peppercorn and clove enliven yellow grape esters near mild white wheat bottom.
3 GUYS & A BEER’D LADDER DIVE IPA
Off the beaten track copper-toned moderation adapts sour ale qualities and dingy Belgian yeast cellar musk to mineral-grained rye breading, pushing aside usual piney fruited IPA tendencies. Lemon-rotted grapefruit, pineapple, peach and papaya tartness embittered by brisk orange peel uprising. Though rye influence is negligible, herbaceous whim adds a nice touch.
BENNY HOPENSTEIN INDIA PALE ALE
Hophead delight loses none of its fruitful delectability in bottled version. Zesty grapefruit-peeled orange, tangerine, cantaloupe, melon and pineapple tang freshened by piney spruced evergreen luster reminiscent of the prominent northeast Pennsylvania woods. Crystal and caramel malts sweeten the load.
BENNY WIT
Delicate pearl-headed straw-hazed moderation gains modest orange peel bittering alongside pithy coriander spicing. Silken sugar malt creaming inundates mild honeyed wheat base. Fleeting peppercorn and lemongrass herbage adds nice touch.
NESHAMINY CREEK TRIBUTE TRIPEL
Fungi yeast pungency contrasts herbal honey sweetness that serenades mild coriander-spiced orange peel bittering. Rising banana-clove influence picks up candi-sugared pear, apple and honeydew illusions.
NESHAMINY CREEK COUNTY LINE IPA
Viable dry-bodied India Pale Ale stays less aggressively hop fruited than typical stylistic fare. Cereal-grained caramel malting and piney floral resonance envelop juicy grapefruit-orange tang. Candied pineapple, peach and mango sweeten casual citric bite. On tap, sharper piney citrus bittering peaks above previously undetected spruce-tipped juniper bite.
SUSQUEHANNA HOP FIVE IPA
Apprehensive lemony hop spice picks up light piney flourish and delicate floral musk. Expectant grapefruit-orange thrust never materializes.
