Casco Bay Summer Ale

Brewed by Casco Bay Brewing (Shipyard Brewing Co.)
Style: American Pale Ale
Portland, Maine USA

Deep gold-copper hue with a small, creamy, off-white head. Sweet tea, dusty, floral, lemon aroma. Watered down sweet tea flavor. Very light bitterness in the finish. Medium-light body, watery texture, low carbonation.

Well balanced and refreshing - I could see myself drinking these all summer. A good balance of hops and malt. Very good.

Pours copper with an off white head. Smells of yogurt, brown sugar and caramel. Tastes of mild citrus notes with a bitter finish. On the watery side.

On tap. Mild hop aroma. Yellow appearance with a white head that lasted quite a while. Tasted like hops and fresh bread. Thin, watery mouth feel. Overall not that great a beer, definately one I could pass up.

Pours a white, two finger-head that vanishes slowly leaving some lace. Clear, light amber color. Light carbonation and light bodied. Nose is faintly hoppy and malty. Starts on the sweet side, with a hoppy but clean finish. A nice summer ale. $1.27 for a 12oz bottle from Tulley’s Beer & Wine Wells, Me.

Not too much in the aroma. Sensed a bit of hops in the aroma and flavor. Only had a sample of this one thanks to HopDog.

Bottle best before 7 05. Poured a medium and cloudy amber color with a small sized white head. Aromas and tastes of citrus (lemons and oranges), light grass and some wheat. Lighter aromas than the tastes. Medium sweet with a light hop finish.

Nice beer, kind of hopped, but not aggressively so. A little bit of lemon and a lttle bit of herb make themselves known in the aftertaste. Nicely textured and easy to drink.
