Mundane reddish-hued ginger ale-like soda pop with candied watermelon, strawberry and cherry flavors gets increasingly cloy above sticky corn-sugared malting. Slick hop astringency ruins wine cooler aspirations.
Noirish Belgian strong dark ale brings honeyed molasses malting to lightly coriander-spiced dried fruiting. Candi-sugared blood orange, white fig, caramelized apple, black plum, black cherry, peach and praline illusions serenade fruitcake midst. Sherry dots muddled brown-sugared mocha-fruited finish.
Well rounded fruit-fronted mocha-malted quad with barleywine aspirations maintains mellower stylistic flow. Red-wined Sangria influence affects luscious fruity palate. Red grape, red apple, bruised cherry, lemon curry, cantaloupe and melon illusions ripen above serene caramel-chocolate malting.
Inpsired by British bitter styling, mineral-grained pale ale brings earthen wood dryness and reedy hop resin to caramel-malted dried fruiting. Grape-jammed fig, plum and grapefruit undertones recede to weedy bottom.
Wayward Italian-made Belgian strong pale ale places citric-spiced mineral graining atop wood-dried grassy hops. Pungent hemp-oiled rye toasting picks up sesame-seeded wheat germ, sorghum and whey minerality as well as light sourdough breading above black-peppered coriander-spiced lemon zest. Hybridized medium-body better defined as nuanced Anglo-American pale ale.
Ephemeral opalescent-hued Belgian-style blonde ale from Italy brings soft white-peppered hop spicing to wildflower-honeyed citrus zest and lightly creamed crystal malts. Mild citric-peeled lemon meringue, champagne grape, pineapple, cantaloupe and banana illusions scurry thru grassy-hopped easement. A sessionable moderation.
Even-keeled medium body stays milder than bold stylistic competition. Easygoing fruited malt sweetness lies atop rye-toasted wheat bed of hesitant English IPA. Resinous grassy hops shelter citric crisping.
