Brattleboro, Vermont USA

Bottle: Pale clear amber with a medium white head. There’s some hops, fruit, apple, and citrus in the nose. Taste is hops, grass, lemon, grapefruit, and has just a bit of tartness in there.

Clear amber with an average white head. Medium citrus hop nose. Light carmael. Typical APA all around here. Flavor is lightly citrus hoppy and light sweetness. Dirthy rough finsih, some tartness. This one may have been on the edge of going bad. The previous two McNeills we tried to drink this night were horribly infected.

Pours a clear amber copper with a white head. Nose is lightly malty with some light citrus in there. Flavor follows with some caramel, grapefruit and I detected a hint of butterscotch. Mouthfeel is medium then gets thin on the back end.

Lightly hazed golden body topped by beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit, some mustiness. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, some spice. Medium bitterness. Watery medium body.

Excellente! Would love to live in Brattleboro and have this is my local everyday beer. Rich aromatic head. Malty/yeasty aroma with gorgeous floral notes. Golden in color. Very very nice!

Cloudy dark orange color with a light hoppy aroma that continues into and pervades the flavor with a mild, sweet hoppyness. Pretty good.

Bottle. Huge citrusy/piney aroma reminiscent of C-hops. Sweet notes. Smells great. Hazy copper color with a light yellow head and a lot of sediment. Hoppy and citrus to start with slight astringency and rather fruity...I think I detect some peach in the middle. Finish is lacking, unfortunately. Rather thin and somewhat boring in the end. This has a ton of potential, just needs to clean up the finish.
