Laughing Dog Huckleberry Cream Ale

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 7

12oz bottle pours clear gold with tiny ring of white foam. The aroma has some berry notes mixing with a slight yeasty tartness and an even fainter note of sourness. At the end of the draw I get some sugary sweetness. All these aromatics seem to go OK together. The taste starts with a mix of berry notes, mild tartness, a faint sour fruitiness and then sugary sweetness. It ends with a bit of tartness that is able to poke through the sugary veil of table sugary like sweetness. This one really isn’t working for me.

Malty aroma has a strong, sweet overtone of - must be huckleberry. It pours a rather typical clear yellow with a fluffy white head, not inspiring, but one shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. Better a good-tasting beer that doesn’t look so hot, than a great-looking beer that disappoints the taste buds. Flavor is malty and fruity, again with a sweet and slightly tangy huckleberry flavor dominating. The tartness nicely balances the sweetness. I get a hint of hops as well. Texture has average body and plenty of fizz. A distinctive beer, worth trying if you like something different and especially if you like fruit beers.

Light sunshine colored beer with a small soapy textured white head that rises briefly above. A small ringlet is left. The nose is lightberry sweetness. That same berry sweetness is more dominant in the tasting. Actually gets better the warmer the beer gets. There is a creaminess that is the high point.

Slightly hazy copper body with zero cap to speak of. Not sure what huckleberry is except for the Hana-Barbar cartoon character but man does this smell yummy. Aroma kind reminds me of raspberry yogurt. Very perfumey & sweet with a good tartness to balance the aroma out. Very Very flowery perfume taste but in a good way. Tasty sweet Raspberries or I guess I mean huckleberries built on a nice smooth malty back bone. Taste is very berryfull without being overly sweet. Nice crisp carbonation. Brew finishes with a touch of medicine. I like this stuff it’s a fruit beer I could see myself drinking all night but only if I was in tight black leather pants.
