Lazy Magnolia Reb Ale

12 oz bottle
The last of the Mississippi beers from a recent trade this was listed as "Deep South Pale Ale" on the label. Fairly standard for a light lawnmower beer it was not my favorite. Nonetheless it is a slight upgrade from your typical macro so if you happen to be stuck in the south this would not be the worst option.

Aroma / Appearance - Fading fast the pillowy head provided a nice cover for the coppery body underneath. Tame maltiness and a trace amount soap dulled what could have been at least a little crisp.

Flavor / Palate - Iced tea with a squeeze of lemons make this taste like Southern tea minus the pound of sugar. Very palateable and easy going it does not retain much of a finish. Overall this is fairly average and respectable. Maybe some day the caps will be lifted so Lazy Magnolia can try more complex styles.

12oz bottle courtesy of TheCheeseMan – thanks Daniel! Pours an overly carbonated hazy gold with a huge 4 finger foamy white head. The nose is wheat, grassy hops and malt. The taste is malt, grain and light citrus hops in the finish. An ok pale.

Palate:Medium/light body with solid carbonation.
Overall:Not too bad, but still just an average beer.

Sweet malty aroma with golden color and thin head. Malty, well-carbonated mouthfeel with strong hoppiness in the finish and some honey notes. The bitter finish really lingers.

Bottle. Dark yellow pour with a thin white head. Aromas of rye and nutmeg. Backbone of a typical pale ale with a bit more of a floral component. A pleasent bitterness on the finish. Pretty good, bit there are quite a few pale ales I like better for the price.

Sampled at the 8th Annual Music City Brewer’s Festival. Pours a clear pale amber with a foamy white head. Aroma is very subtle with wheat, caramel, and orange. Taste is mild orange rind and caramel, very plain though. Medium thin body with light carbonation.

bottle thanks to jazzbassman. Pours a clear amber with a white head. Nose is of nuts, grain and honey. Taste is the same. Mouthfeel was thin, but had a little bitterness to it. Nothing special.
