Perfect pils aroma... Lemon zest, fresh cut grass, maybe a hint of almond extract. Pours a very clear pale gold with a decent head that doesn't have much staying power and leaves no lace. Great mouth.. tingly slippery and clean, slightly light body. Pills flavor doesn't get any better than this.. tart, a little bit of must, slightly astringent towards the end, perfectly bittered and perfectly balanced. And some lemon rind and fresh grass the super clean finish.

Sweet malts immediate upon the nose.... Fresh baked bread... Just a little floral. Light copper body topped with a whitehead with minimal retention and minimal lace. Mouth is creamy and quite effervescent. Medium bodied. Flavor starts a bit hoppy.. mid taste goes a bit sour.. malt showing up in the finish which is rather lengthy. A touch of astringency in the finish. Gets better as it warms.

Huge nose of citrus and pine and mango. Looks just right for a NEIPA... Totally hazed dark amber body, Great lace, and a whitehead with moderate retention. This big beer brings all of your mouth into play especially the back outside tongue. It's pretty clean is moderate carbonation. If you're looking for something that's hoppy as hell and will call juicy has really at least as much old-fashioned California IPA flavor as it does normal New England juice bombs then this is the one for you.

Billy Brady on the nose some nice funky pasture. Pours a clear light gold with minimal head and minimal lace although it's in the s***** airport bar plastic glass so who knows. Really soft smooth mouth with a great tingle really spot on. It's a fairly hoppy German pilsner a lot of bread and cracker some peppery spice it's really an excellent pilsner. Is it worth 12 bucks at an airport bar I don't know but it's pretty damn good.

Okay this is weird but I get a smoky nose almost like a sweet barbecue maybe an Asian barbecue. Also some pepper and some very sweet peach in the nose. Unique. Hazed deep gold slightly amber body whitehead that lingers slightly but doesn't really last too long minimal lace. Mouth has a nice tingle it's medium to light bodied plays really well in the back of the mouth very tangy. Okay weird I also get barbecue in the flavor they're calling this a pale ale it's much more like a sour which happens a lot with Kent falls. There's some apple cider vinegar there's some candy sugar there's a medium length finish that ends up almost clean surprisingly for as sweet and tart and sour and yes it's almost like drinking a sweet tart. Suspect the barbecue is coming from the oak barrel aging. I mean they're calling this a Paleo so I don't know where to downgrade the score because this is not a pale ale. I would wonder if it had gone bad except I bought it at the brewery so it's two and a half years old if doesn't taste like it's gone bad it's just really not a pale ale. I find a drinkable it's tasty it's just not a payal what do I do I guess I'll knock it down two points on flavor for being totally off style.

Mild nose... Raisin, cotton candy, fresh cut grass. Deep copper body thin off white head, reasonable lace for the ABV. Moderate to low carbonation, slick on the mouth, medium body. Fairly subtle flavor for its style. Black cherry, brown sugar but sweet well balanced with coffee tones a very long finish that is a bit of stringent and nicely bittered. Tasty is always from Lagunitas.

Nose: pea, bubble gum and a little hint of white pepper. Pours a hazed medium gold body, minimal Head has poor retention. Nice mouth tingly clean. Flavor is all banana at first... Fouls was slight clove flavors which are understated which I appreciate. The bubble gum is definitely there. Just a hint of pepper in the end and I'm going white pepper here. Like a mild hefe which I suppose is appropriate.

Nose: raisins, creme brulee, clove and banana faintly present. Appearance: opaque deep brown body topped with a long-lasting beige head with nice lace. Mouth: Fizzy for sure, clean with medium body plays strongly on the back of the tongue. Flavor: Damn this is tasty! Light coffee and sweet cacao in the front. Esters and phenols are present but very minimal..... I love this balance. Creme brulee really coming out as it warms slightly. Alcohol very well masked but slightly warming in the middle of the taste. Very very long finish which starts slightly sweet but really ends clean. Could be my new favorite brew.

Nose: Clove, bubble gum, grass, violets. Appearance: Indeed a crystal clear body, moderate short-lived head leaving more suds than lace. Mouth: medium body, slick, decent tingle, not coating. Flavor: Surprisingly sweet, drinking a bit on the warm side and getting maple syrup, clove aspect is there and is drying on the mouth, short finish is dry and baking spice. Bubblegum is there. Slightly more hops and less esters than a straight hefe as it should be.

Sorry to ask us to put up a description so here it is. At the end of the 19th century, Munich took great pleasure in two new beaming additions to the city: the golden Angel of Peace and the first lager beer speciality, Münchner Gold. Still brewed by us to this day according to the age-old recipe, this slightly stronger beer is a mature masterpiece and delights with its enticing malty aroma and its slightly stronger original wort. Color pale, golden-yellow Flavours balanced Bitterness balanced Alcohol 5,5 % vol Calorific values 46 kcal / 100 ml Choice hops Hallertauer Tradition, Hallertauer Herkules Premium malt Marthe, Grace and Catamaran barley varieties Perfect with: Our Münchner Gold is particularly tasty as an accompaniment to traditional Bavarian snacks with bread, salad, sliced meats and typical cheese specialities such as Obatzda (Camembert spread) and blue-veined cheese. We also recommend it with fish, seafood and juicy roast chicken. Decent mouth slightly watery very short finish. I know it can't be but this tastes like corn to me. Christian Moulton and some very lightly bittering hops, it's like a better Budweiser. NOW A REVIEW Hell nose of malt and grass. We are medium gold body not much lasting to the head and no lace. Maybe it's just not my cup of pee.

Red berry fruit, cotton candy, tobacco, in this big nose. There's a cake extremely dark brown with a deep tan head that lasts well and leaves good lace. Creamy slick and coating in the mouth with a medium body. The starts a little on the sweet side and finishes nicely bitter. There's coffee and dark chocolate and a lot of toasty malts. The alcohol is warming there's perhaps a bit of a vanilla flavor towards the end and the finish is long.

Typical Hefe nose with the esters is just a little bit more on the mild side. More clove and spice than banana which I think I'm going to like. I didn't have a proper hefe glass but the poor has the head that won't expects frothy and white the lovely clear gold body tending towards the Amber side. Mouth is foamy medium to light bodied proper tingle. Flavor is following the nose. Light on the banana somewhat heavy on the clove hints of cardamom wheat malt is there but barely. Reminds me an awful lot of what I drink in the pubs in Switzerland. So I'm probably going to kick it up a little for sentimentality sake.

Very surprisingly mild nose. Lovely medium brown to Ruby body with significant caramel colored head. Not much lace. Nice mouth Folsom coating slightly creamy significant fizz. Really like the flavor on this one. Some chocolate hints of coffee.... Brown sugar... Sweet but not cloyingly so... Bit of dark ripe fruit... Lengthy finish.

Wow, love the nose! Floral lavender, lemons, pine and pepper, and its a big nose too. Cloudy (whats up with that, this is the third otherwise delightful IPA's I have had in a can that are cloudy?) pale amber body is topped by a big frothy white head of medium retention ad nice lace. I hate grading an otherwise decent IPA down for being cloudy but what can I do? Mouth is nice, slightly creamy spot on with the carbonation, and slippery. Flavor follows the nose, touch of flowery sweetness with a good malt backbone, very nicely bittered, dry tart clean finish. Very nice IPA, nothing unique but a classic IPA, and almost in the WC style from this New England brewer. Just noticed crud in bottom of glass, not right for an IPA! knocking it down a bit more/

Re-rate: 2023 not going to change the score but I sure do miss the old label. Some pine and citrus in the nose; apricot, rose petals, and grapefruit. Pour is gorgeous. Quite a pale amber body topped by a rocky, frothy head with great retention and good lace. Medium bodied slightly slippery mouth. Flavor is unique IMHO. With no malt in the nose this has a pretty strong malt backbone. Malt is neutral, neither toasty nor sweet. This beer is bitter! Great job using some hops for nose and others for bittering. The citrus and pine are not nearly as strong in the flavor profile as they are in the nose. Just a really big bitter clean finish with a hint of sour. Some peppery notes detected and once I thought I tasted coffee. Also some pineapple. And wheat, I taste the wheat. Alcohol is a significant part of taste profile. Did I mention fantastic lace? Did I mention bitter? How did they make this beer as pale as it is (all wheat.) Lagunitas never disappoints. This is an extremely well made brew! Rerate 1/21/13 I just adore this brew, there is a lot of pine and citrus in the taste and also some apricot ... wonderful stuff!

The junior version of their dogs and boats. Ripe pair dominates the nose with just a tickle of spicy swee sticky buns. Hazed medium gold body that is somewhat translucent tapped by a nice egg white 2-in head that leaves great lace. Mouth is light to medium bodied with excellent carbonation. Flavor is less fruity than the nose ... Starts bitter then some apricot or pear flavors come through... The finish is lengthy and goes somewhat astringent perhaps too much so. Very little malt happening here.

Standard hazy NEIPA nose slightly low-key. The Amber color has an odd 10 show beige smash green in it on the body with a head that leaves the skims coat. Poor retention and a little bit of sudsy lace. Paininess from the oats coming through in the mouth feel. Feels a bit under carbonated. A little understated compared to most AZ IPAs which in my opinion is a good thing however towards the end there's some astringency a little bit of aspirin not the kind of bittering I'm looking for in this type of beer. Finishes pretty clean slightly sweet.

On tap at the local, Icons in New Fairfield Connecticut. Slightly mild nose no barley detectable hints of some wheat. Perhaps are largely tropical citra happening here. Appearance is classic New England hazed IPA moderate gold to copper body white head that has some retention leaves a skim coat with gorgeous lace. I'm loving the mouth feel on this which is coming from the wheat no doubt it's creamy and moderate to full bodied. The flavor is spot on for New England hazy.... It's heady topper slightly reduced. At 6.5% it it's a nice place on the alcohol level. The flavors are typical of your hazy New England IPA some mango some pineapple very tropical and yet they are somewhat more restrained which I think is a plus. The spirit is happening for sure and I'm going to have to check out equilibrium for some more of their brews.

Nose of toasted grain, cookie dough, raisins, brown sugar. Very deep copper body is quite clear with a tan head that leaves a skim coat and no lace. Strong tingle and a fairly creamy mouth medium bodied. Flavor reminds me a lot of Lagunitas Brown Shugga. Starts with dark fruit overripe, then a big hit of sweet cotton candy followed quickly find a hint of bitterness and ends up fairly dry. I touched too sweet overall but not a bad brew.

Pale in color and flavor this euroPale is so so. Not much nose, a bit of malt. Decent head over moderate amber body, no lacing to speak of. Mouthfeel is medium. Pale skunk balanced by a dribble of hops and corn.

Rye and floral hops in the nose it's a really nice noise. Dark copper clear body topped with an off-white head with decent retention and good lace. Full body then slightly creamy on the mouth with decent carbonation. Flavor is straightforward one-dimensional but tasty definitely quaffable. Super clean finish. Starts a little bit sweet the malt kicks in finishes just a hair bitter and drying.

On draft at the local. Long-lasting nose. I think there's some weed in there definitely tropical notes pineapple guava Clementine. Decent head medium retention leaves a skim coat pretty good sudsy lace. Mouth is just a hair creamy great tingle.... carbonation spot on it's a bit slick and a bit drying. I'm totally digging the flavor on this and it reminds me a bit of Bell's Two Hearted but hazy. There's just a hint of sweet tart maybe a little touch of sour pineapple at the end some nice high orange-colored citrus notes in the middle. Really well balanced. Astringency right near the end that goes away fast leaving a really clean slightly sour aftertaste. I'll have another please. They also have a really fun website maybe the best website I've seen for a Brewer so far except they could give us a little more information on the actual recipes.

Well they kicked it up to 8% but the rest of this review is still pretty accurate 8 years later.Moderate nose of pine and orange, fairly standard. Medium amber body topped by nice white head with goo lace. Mouth is medium, nothing special. As the brewer says, not much malt, lots of hops., kinda lacking in flavor but strongly unflavored bitterness. Fairly neutral in taste, not much flavoring hops, not citrus or floral in flavor. A bit buttery for an IPA. Finish is super dry and slightly medicinal. this brewery is close to making good beers (I've had their Saison) but they just miss. need to work the recipe and get serious. At 7.2 "Double IPA is a bit of a stretch, alcohol present but mild.
