Key West Sunset Ale

Brewed by Florida Beer Company
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Melbourne, Florida USA

Unknown Date (2007?): Golden coor + mild carbonation + quicly diminishing white head + aroma of honey pale malt + flavor of palt malt + dry + light body = Key West Sunset Ale. Nothing to write home about...

12 fl. oz. bottle (sample). Rating #169 for this beer.

Bought it as a "traveller" (plastic cup and a brown paper bag for the bottle) so I could drink it on the street while walking back to my cruise ship on a VERY hot day. Could’ve had a Bud; this was better plus a good addition for my bottle collection. Would have another any time.

not too bad, has some decent malts with a light fruity aroma and flavor. the palate is quite full. decent enough.

Poured an amber color with very little head. Had a light caramel aroma with light caramel and malt flavors. As is the case with most beers of this style, this one was a very forgettable beer.

In a beer wasteland like key west, we had to try this because it was different than Miller light. It was pretty bitter, with very little perceivable esters, almost lager-like. Medium-low body, really not that good.

Had on tap multiple times on my recent trip to the Keys. Pours out a somewhat amber color with a small white head and a decent caramel aroma and slight grassy hops. Taste is mostly caramel, some slight citrus notes and a bit bready, works for a hot day in the Keys, but nothing outstanding. Worst part is that it is called Key West Sunset, yet its brewed about 400 miles north.....

BOTTLE: golden pour, light wheat and citrus nose and taste, slight dry/bitter on the aftertaste. Doesn’t suck - good on a hot day.

Bonus bottle from Daknole. Golden pour, very little carbonaton and a little generic malt aroma. Flavor is light wheat, a little citrus and slightly bitter on the aftertaste. I can see myself enjoying this with seafood.
