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.
TROEGS RUGGED TRAIL NUT BROWN ALE
Ruggedly coarse ruby-marooned tan-headed English-styled full body pushes milk chocolate-y hazelnut sugaring above roasted barley-hop clip, tenuous coffee ground slip, and coarse walnut snip. Dry cocoa finish picks up meager cola nut, tea leaf, and peat illusions.
TROEGS PALE ALE
Bittersweet fruited malt surge acquires floral-hopped bouquet juxtaposing nutty bottom. Raspy blueberry-raspberry sweetness anchors off-dry medium body. On second passing, sharp orange-peeled lemon rind zest punctuates whiskey-soaked wheat husk, leaving spritzy mandarin orange aftertaste.
TROEGS OATMEAL STOUT
Ascending black coffee roast, molasses-sapped burnt caramel creaminess, and supportive hop-embittered nuttiness linger loudly to driest lactose-chocolate finish, picking up charred pine-maple wood tones, flaked oat stipend, and raisin-prune dalliance. Creamy soured mocha center reveals teensy black licorice dash. Even its exquisite jet black hue, maroon-burgundy highlights, rocky tan head, and lacey remnant encourage attention.
TROEGS NUT BROWN ALE
Supreme chestnut-hued tawny-headed velvet-smooth ale benefits from chalky mocha dryness and toasted chocolate malts. Pronounced smokiness bolstered by blitzing roasted hop fizz, burnt caramel nuttiness, and coarse oatmeal grit. Moderately creamy with temptingly chewy chocolate nougat finish.
TROEGS NUGGET NECTAR IMPERIAL AMBER ALE
Piercing piney prominence seeps through loud grapefruit-peeled orange rind bittering and honeyed-floral accrual. Sharp hop bite really brings out salient spruce sapping settling to juicy peach-melon-nectarine-pineapple tropicalia. A savory delight!
TROEGS MAD ELF HOLIDAY ALE
Heavily alcoholic winter brew will throw you for a loop. Honeyed malt rumination, ester-y citric mustiness, stewed prune spew, and methyl cherry splurge lead to tangerine liqueur finish and cocoa buttered barleywine aftertaste.
TROEGS HOPBACK AMBER ALE
Wild berries invade Band-Aid-nosed pine forest linger and bitter orange peel discretion at smoky dry-hopped front end of medium-bodied translucent amber. Dried tobacco stint, vegetal carrot-beet splint, and slim mint hint conquer floral hop spicing contrasting surging caramel malt sweetness. An enthusiastic amber ale with deeply embedded IPA characteristics on the bitter end.
TROEGS E.S.B. AMBER ALE
Taut dry-hopped barley-roasted thrust and sweet red ale-like fruited spiciness usurped by spruce overtones. Astringent grapefruit pith and orange peel complement bittersweet maple-sapped finish for abundantly versatile full-bodied amber.
TROEGS DREAMWEAVER WHEAT ALE
Soft unfiltered yellow-hazed American wheat ale brings tart banana breading to dry-hopped clove-coriander spicing, honeyed wafer backdrop, and white peppered hop tingle. Sour-candied lemondrop tartness seeps into mild banana-clove finish. But unassuming nature causes slight deficit.
TROEGS DEAD RECKONING PORTER
Resinous dry porter maintains unsettling washed-out astringency, distracting chocolate malt roast and reedy Chinook hop bittering. Phenol cocoa-powdered toffee-cappuccino dalliance needs creamier caramel-vanilla depth and richer walnut-Brazil nut toasting.
TROEGS BAVARIAN-STYLE LAGER
Bittersweet grains given brisk-hopped dark citrus compensation at first sip. Then, burnt wood mouthfeel and orange notes emerge for crisp yeast-backed mineral finish. But lack of resilience lowers its true Bavarian appeal.
