Berkshire Springs Stock Ale

Brewed by Minhas Craft Brewery
Style: Amber Ale
Monroe, Wisconsin USA

A first sip it gives a sudden rush of hops and malt. then suddleny it falls flat almost to a watery texture. Crisp and Clean, but nothing special

Pours with an orange-gold body topped by a thin head with some lacing. The aroma is slightly sweet yet slightly sour with some malt notes and a slight mustiness. The flavor is slightly sweet and malty with an underlying bitterness, slight musty notes and a slight sourness. Medium bodied and dry.

Poured a dark gold/amber color with a sparse head and a mild citrusy hop aroma. Light bodied and almost devoid of carbonation, dry and a lot hoppier than it smelled, but the malt seemed weak, kind of one sided, drinkable but not so hot actually.

(part of holiday gift pack) Yuck. Decent amber color with no head. Flavor was very medicinal/soapy. Like what you’d get if you poured a beer then rinsed the bottle with some water and dial soap, then added that to the glass as well. I poured my down the drain--others seemed to have had better luck, so maybe my bottle was just off.

ESB. Bitter, crisp, possibly nutty. Amber colored and a decent head. very decent beer.

The aroma is sweet with sugar, yeast, and malt. There is also a small amount of grassy hops. The appearance is amber with a small head. The flavor is like the aroma with a grainy finish. The palate is thin. Overall its not great but is easy to drink.

Ok, but kind of bitter and a bit weak overall. At first taste, it seems like it would be a heavy beer, but it soon fizzles. I was not crazy about this beer, but it was worth a try.

Decent brew. Good flavor. Strong aftertaste that lingers. Medium bitterness
