Cooperstown Nine Man Ale

Brewed by Cooperstown Brewing Co.
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Milford, New York USA

Golden color with a nice but quickly fading head. As usual I can’t pick out any pronounced aromas but it is bity at first taste with a smoother aftertaste. I wasn’t overly impressed although it would be a nice hot summer day beer.

Bright amber/gold appearance with a large white head. Subdued, toasted malt aroma along with some spicyness. Sweet malt taste up front becomes a little fruitier as it finishes. Fairly simple, thirst quenching, undemanding, session beer.

Deep golden color, very huge & bubbly white head, nose full of orange, bread & grapefruit, fizzy mouthfeel, rather light in body, very sweet body of flavors with notes of orange peel, apricot, grapefruit, & a touch of white bread, more sweet notes in the finish & aftertaste, a lot more flavor than expected, probably couldn’t drink more than one or two, but not bad at all

In a bottle from the grocery store. It poured a clear gold with a huge white head. My reaction from the first swallow was a sparkling mouthfeel that masked the taste. Second swallow; it was light, it was dry, still no discernable malt or hop taste and the head was gone. It wasn’t highly carbonated but it left me gassy and struggling to find a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. Yeah it looked like beer, it was refreshing but it lacked the flavor of the advertised malt, hops and wheat.

Poured from bottle purchased at brewery. Actually smells like a brewery - wheat and malt. Flavor of toasted rye along with the hops. Kinda dark for a golden ale. Great feel and finish, esp on this 96 degree day. Goes well with pizza, too.

Bleh. Pours orange with a nice head, lasting. Aroma is soapy and metallic. Flavor is of stale malt and honey, with some cheapo hop bite.

From a bottle at the brewery. The body was medium gold with a white head.The aroma was green beans with bread. Strange. The taste was slightly funky with cheese rind. There was also bread crust. A weird beer.

On draught at the brewery. Pours gold with a white head. Smells nutty with some malty undertones. Some lemon and grassy notes give way to a peppery nuttiness on the finish.
