Fort Collins Summer Fling

Brewed by Fort Collins Brewery
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Fort Collins, Colorado USA

Bonus appearance point for the cool label. Dark yellow, thin white head. Very biscuity, crackery aroma. Flavor is bready or buiscuity or something like that. Tasty enough, but could use some brightness or something.

Poured with a head and some lace. Medium amber color. Very limited aromas which were hoppy, bit citrusy, and a bit of malt. Flavor is about the same. Has a pleasant, medium body with plenty of carbonation. Turns a little thin. Still, it’s quite drinkable. Has a good finish with a little alcohol. Drinkable.

Appearance: Pours a clear, copper body with a bubbly, white head. Smell: Light maltiness in the aroma with scents of spicy hops and fresh-baked bread. Taste: Light caramel maltiness with a small pop of sugar. Some toffee hints follow. Slight taste of grainy bread. Spicy hops, lightly bitter. Sweetish finish with a hint of cream. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Hey, it’s not so bad! Somewhat recommended.

bomber. hazed orange pour with a decent head. strange aroma. kinda sweet malts and light fruits but slightly off. flavor was pretty sweet. sweet grains, fruit, and very bitterness. light alcohol warmth. just ok. nothing foul about but then again nothing to get excited over.

Bomber. Deep amber with a little bit of haze. The large head was slightly off white. The aroma was light oranges and peanuts. There was also some fresh laid carpet. The taste was disgustingly sweet with generic smooth peanut butter and shortbread cookies. There was also some strange notes of old sweet potatoes. I do not like sweet potatoes. Blah, a bad beer from this normally good brewer.

650 ml. Clear, shiny burnt orange with a one-inch head that lasts all day and leaves some nice sticky lace. Aroma of succotash, grain, and honey. Flavor of grain, earthy sweet corn and vegetables; finish of slight tart apple and wooden tongue depressor. Light-medium body is watery, fairly smooth on the carbonation, and dryish. Not so much fun of it.

Bottle. Pours a translucent orange with a normal head atop. Nose is sweet, malty with some peaches. Mouthfeel is suprisingly viscous. I was expecting something alot thinner. Flavors are sweet, peachy and malty as the nose. I thought this one was pretty full bodied although for a summer fling, I thought it was not as light as it could have been. I liked this and would purchase again. Only $5 for the bomber.

Pour is a hazy orange with a large white head. Aroma has plenty of bready malts and a touch of caramel. Flavor is again filled with bready malts and a little lingering chocolate. Nothing i need to have again but not as bad as some have said on here.
