Hook and Ladder Lighter

Brewed by High Falls Brewing Company
Style: Pale Lager
Rochester, New York USA

12oz bottle. Hazy orange-yellow color. Effervescent and mildly pleasant. Some wheat and light malt flavor, but quickly fades into a boring watery finish. Not so impressive, but way better than your typical macro light beer I suppose.

(bottle - 12 oz) Pale gold in color with a soapy white head. Aroma is very earthy with some hints of hay, stale grass, and sweetness in addition. Flavor is very light and sweet with some hints of apples and dry hops mixed with a light grainy note. Flavor doesn’t last very long and leaves not much on the palate.

Pours a golden color with a white head. Sweet aroma with some earthy grains and grass hops. Light, watery flavor with some grainy flavors and some grassy hops. Crisp finish. No lingering flavor.

Pours pale yellow with a fizzy white head. Smells of sweet malt and peppery. Tastes light and watery with some stray hops as the beer warms.

Light straw color with a tallish white head. Interesting name as I catch grain and cigarette but scent aromas. I really do seem to smell used tobacco. Grain and corn flavors. Hint of grassy hops. Watery, nearly flat feel, like old tonic water. No major faults, but certainly not rousing in any way.

Bottle 12 oz at Village Pub, KY. Poured clear light pale color with large white head that diminished slowly with fair lacing. Light to moderate grainy malt aroma. Light body with soft carbonation. Light sweet flavor with light sweet finish of short duration. Below average brew.

This clear yellow beer poured with a decent white head and virtually no aroma, a bad sign. And, indeed, the flavor is also missing. There is a hint of malt and very little hopping. Drain pour.

Pours with three finger white head that fades slowly leaves some lace. Crystal clear amber color. Light sweet floral nose. Very light carbonation and very light bodied. Flavor is adjuncts and carrots, good lawnmower beer. A better light is Sam Adams. Mis-classified here as an pale lager. $1.75 for a 12oz from Barb’s Beer Emporium Concord, NH.
