KIRIN ICHIBAN SPECIAL PREMIUM RESERVE

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zdry lager, KIRINJohn Fortunato

Mild golden-bronzed dry lager with wheat-toasted corn ricing culls glistening crystal malt sweetness to counter earthen rusticity. Rice milked doughiness, dainty apple-pear dollop and recessive chestnut snip pick up slight hop spicing at the midst, but ‘100% malt’ beer, while displaying many delicate aspects, loses inertia by soapy citric finish.

(HUYGHE) KIRA WITBIER

January 1, 2009Beers A-ZwitbierJohn Fortunato

Pertinent info seems unavailable for soft-flowing light-bodied cloudy pale white ale. Delicate coriander-clove spicing saddles wispy lemony banana traipse and sweet bubblegum illusion, but solvent-like midst drags down watery suds.

KIPLING LIGHT LAGER

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zlight lagerJohn Fortunato

Oxymoronic ‘dark light beer’ edict fits tan-headed chestnut-bodied softie as fluctuant sweet-sour malts and dry wheat spine provide thicker resonance than weaker, paler competition. Salty snacks bring out minor fruit variables. Brewery defunct: 2004.

KIPER PREMIUM LAGER

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zlight lagerJohn Fortunato

Similar to Kiper Pilsner, as sweet cornmeal thrust acquires tart lemondrop snip to cloying gummy malt finish. Serve to macrobrew lunkheads.

KIPER PIWO JASNE

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zstrong lagerJohn Fortunato

Despite affordable $1.25 price for commanding 8% alcohol boom, nasty cabbage-like vegetal waft and cloying corn-sugared maize-dried caramel malting disrupt carbolic-fizzed bittersweet citric hop zip.

KIPER PILSNER

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zlight pilsnerJohn Fortunato

Easygoing soft-toned smoke-spiced medium body picks up dry lemon splurge to supplement cereal-grained biscuit wheat base. Cloy corn syrup usurpation may discourage expert drinkers.

KIPER BLACK BEER

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zdark lagerJohn Fortunato

Despite ‘black’ designation, pale golden lager retains heady malt liquor salience. Smoked whiskey prelude fades to sticky cream corn sweetness with biscuit-y wheat waver. Possible liqueur wisp turns soapy by astringent finish, where 7% alcohol drear sullies glutinous gluten goo.

KINSALE IRISH LAGER

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zpale lagerJohn Fortunato

Crisp water centers sharp grain bitterness, pale malt plainness, and sourdough follow-up for delicately nonchalant sunny yellow lager. Soapy finish succumbs to metallic raunchiness.

KING’S PONTIAC PORTER

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zbaltic porterJohn Fortunato

Inefficient mahogany-hued Baltic-like porter with dry nutty mocha disposition stays astringent as cheap espresso, burnt coffee, and cocoa bean illusions belie earthen hop char. Black chocolate bittering, latent cola nut surge, and burnt wood sensation fail to variegate backend, though further sips reveal frothy lactose creaminess.

KING’S PALE ALE

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zpale aleJohn Fortunato

Hazy coppery amber medium body retains muted citrus bitterness, mild hop spicing, and toasted barley biscuit respite, but oxidized finish diminishes impact.

KING’S MOCHA JAVA STOUT

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zcoffee stoutJohn Fortunato

Lofty full-bodied mahogany-hued stout boasts rich ground coffee theme supplemented by bittersweet maple oats sequel and tart raisin puree remnant. Perfectly and emphatically captures roasted coffee bean essence.

KING’S I.P.A.

January 1, 2009Beers A-Zindia pale aleJohn Fortunato

Frothily viscous penny-coppered ale lacks body and complexity, but caramel malt sweetness, perfume-y floral accents, and frisky seltzer-like carbonation will please softer palates just fine. Tamped down hops reveal diluted grapefruit rind-orange peel bitterness.
