STOUDT’S FEST MARZEN STYLE BEER
Promising nut aroma rewards equally compelling barleymalt sweetness, caramel mocha richness, and maple sap thickness to milk chocolate finish. Dark fruit flash and bitter hop dash provide calm backdrop.
SUMMIT EXTRA PALE ALE
Lively lemony hop spritz awakens mild earthen grain bitterness as orange peel tang provides boost to expressive tart citrus flow.
GOLD STAR PREMIUM LAGER
Supposed ‘full-bodied’ dark lager has a lot goin’ on. Burnt hop bittering recalls musty red ale; earthen grain insinuation provokes uncomplicated pilsner; and berry-tinged finish glides like dreary summer ale. But murky mix is problematic.
TETLEY’S ENGLISH ALE
THIRIEZ AMBER FARMHOUSE ALE
Highly carbolic fizz-crackling gossamer-like pearl-headed moderate body leaves ample lace along glass siding. Spritzy lemon zest, fuzzy apricot-nectarine tang, and spiced Granny Smith apple tartness fade into raw wheat-chaffed spine. Dank barnyard waft permeates mildewed yeast imprint, sopping up rising banana-butterscotch swirl, sparse raisin-fig dryness, and distant cardamom-coriander-cinnamon spicing.
THREE FLOYDS GUMBALLHEAD WHEAT ALE
Vibrant spruce hop opening increases hazy pale summer ale profile as grassy wheat sustenance dominates polite peach-cherry-berry-mango tang, reticent white grape tartness and minor coriander tuft. By piney finish, orange-grapefruit peel bitterness consumes scaled down nutty remnant.
(T’IJ) STRUIS
Stewed prune nose, candied raisin tongue, citric-floral spicing, and tiny yeast particles inundate alcohol-fueled rust-amber Belgian-styled dark ale, obtaining bruised orange swagger and coriander-clove nicety to rye-like finish.
TOPVAR DARK LAGER
Amiable chestnut-hued brew retains mild turbidity as affluent cascading brown bubbles surface at fleshy head. Unrefined grain nose, muted sugar malt assertiveness, tobacco-stained docility, and cocoa butter creaminess settle into ripe cherry-orange fruitiness before rich raisin finish adds thicker luster.
(TRAVERSE) SLEEPING BEAR BROWN ALE
Pungent sour coffee coarseness blitzes astringent nuttiness, burnt toast rancor, and chalky cocoa acridity. Dry white grape esters seethe beneath intrusive woody hop fizz.
TROEGS SUNSHINE PILS
Sunny opaque light-bodied German pils erects husked wheat fortress around bright nectar-tangerine-peach tang and mildly zesty lemon souring. Grassy wet-leafed hop mildness sidles refreshing mineral-watered crisping to clean citric finish. Fine summertime beach fodder.
TRUE NORTH CREAM ALE
Brisk water flow saturates smooth pumpernickel foundation. Sweet fruited malt caress, orange rind bittering, marble rye reminder, and dry nuttiness knock back light creaminess to compromised finish.
