Coney Island Albino Python

Shmaltz Brewing Company
Brewed at Olde Saratoga Brewing (Mendocino Brewing Co.)
Style: Spice/Herb/Vegetable
San Francisco, California USA

22oz bottle from Casa de Oro Liquor. Hazy yellow with a big and fizzy white head. Nose of spice, bananas, carbonated lemonade and citrus. Flavor was lightly spiced with a very refreshing and crisp finish. I really liked this brew.

(From 8-3-08 sampling, thanks to Thickfreakness for sharing) Murky non transparent yellow with orange rays, light carbonation, odd aroma of menthol, pepper, and nutmeg. Hits the mouth with a light body, malt is very weak, has a rosemary note on the end. Odd one.

22 oz. bottle, split with a friend. Consumed on 8-3-08. Pours a clear gold with a touch of orange and a lot of fluffy, white head. Surprisingly yeasty aroma, given the lack of haze. White grape juice, salt, and lemon-sour scents. Smells of the sea. Sweet, simple, and accesible taste. Citrus and coriander flavors. Refreshing. Frothy and fizzy in the palate. Light body. Albino Python White Lager is not bad, but it’s not good either. It’s just not interesting enough for me.

Thanks to Thickfreakness for busting out this legendary gem! I heard that he had to make out with a crippled midget stripper with herpes in order to be entered into a lottery to win a shot at this beer. However badly it burns, just know that it was worth it. ; )
Smell is of rosemary and vicks vapor rub. Chock full of bright menthol eucalyptus. Cloudy yellow pour with a white head. Taste is mild and dry. Bland wheat flavor with more minty, rosemary flavors than anything. Could use a touch more malt flavor and less herbaciousness, but still an interesting brew. Thanks dude!

Appearance: Pours a fizzy, pale yellow body with a small, bubbly, white head. Smell: Very aromatic nose here, smelling of pale malts and spicy hops but mainly displaying notes of ginger, peppercorn medley, cloves, citrus zest, flowers, and with a particularly strong note of fresh fennel. Taste: Pale, pilsnery maltiness with a hint of tangy wheat and a light sweetness. Faint graininess. My my, they really emptied out the spice cabinet here, there’s flavors of ginger, cloves, lemongrass, cracked peppercorns, and a strong, licoricey fennel taste. Spicy hops with a restrained bitterness. Finishes rather crisp, with a lingering licorice and ginger. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Somewhat fizzy carbonation. Drinkability: Pleasant, spicy lager that’s plenty tasty, though I could use a tad lighter carbonation.

Aroma is a little spicy with an odd scent. Color is a pale hazy yellow with good carbonation and ok head. Taste is like the aroma. Stating with a lighter body it goes down a little sharp. Finish is odd, its medinciny and a juniper like taste. I don’t like it at all.

22oz bottle-Pours a hazy white with a huge white head that dissipates into a small covering. Aroma of spices. Taste of spices and juniper or something that I don’t care for. The front end wasn’t bad but then it goes down hill for this light bodied brew. I definitely prefer the ale version over the lager.

22oz bottle, Thanks to GandGKevin for this one. Pours cloudy golden in color with foamy white head. With lots of carbonation. Aroma yeasty, spice and light hops. Taste yeasty, spicy and dry with spicy finish. Not a bad beer.
