McGuires Light Ale

Brewed by McGuires Irish Pub & Brewery
Style: Pale Lager
Pensacola, Florida USA

Draught, Pensacola
Very pale. Very lagery-grainy. Lightly fruity. Quick finish.

on tap-pours a disappearing white head and straw color. Aroma is light crisp grain, faint continental hops. Taste is light crisp grain-caramel/some peat, secondary continental/fruit hops. Dry. Light body.

Pale yellow and a tad thin, but nicely flavorful with light malts.

Dubbed "McGuire’s Old Fashioned Ale." Extra pale straw color, clear, white head, scattered lacing. Sweet fruity aroma reminiscent of peaches. Watery body but nice grain character.

This was your microbrew ale equivalent of a Corona style lager, American pilsner, whatever you want to call it. Lacing was very impressive for the boring style, the appearance golden. Light touch of hops to balance out the malts, somewhat of a corn flavor. Mouthfeel was obviously light. Good beer for those that don’t want anything fancy.

This was a little different. Pale yellow, almost looked the color of pear juice. Small fast fading head. Huge malt flavors which is the change up here. Most pale lagers have some sort of adjuncty kinda flavor and maybe a mild hop for crispness, but this had a pretty pronounced malt profile from fore to aftertatse. It was still thin and watery, but it was like a Light Bass Ale more than it was like a Bud Light. Different.

On tap at the brewpub in Pensacola: poured a light yellow with adequate white head. Lightly floral hop aroma. Flavor is pretty full for a "light" beer. Lightly sour with hints of lemon. I enjoyed it.

sampler at brewpub, Destin, FL pours clear golden, white head. aroma is light and herbal with pilsener hops. taste, hoppy, herbal light in body with a light bitter finish and hints of malts.
