Commercial Description:
the name given a new hoppy, low-alcohol pale ale from the minds of Brewmeister John Pinkerton and his talented assistant, Chris Lady, at Moon River Brewing Company. While Savannahfest remains the microbrewery’s flagship, it’s apparent that Slow-vannah and its session beer characteristics could propel it into become a leading, year-round offering.

Hazy light amber. Lemony, melony hop aroma with a lightly perfumey accent. Smooth body. Lots of grapefruity hops mesh with an overall canteloupey character.

Pint, on tap at the brewpub in Savannah. Light orange pour, nice white head, solid lacing. Slight hint of floral notes in the aroma - fresh. Slight minty notes in the flavor with a slight citrus bent. Nothing really jumps out - just smooth drinking and a good meal accompaniment. Clean, even mouthfeel.

En fût. Verre de dégustation directement à la brasserie. Arôme: Légère odeur d’agrumes avec une pointe de pêche. Apparence: La couleur est cuivrée avec une très faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Léger goût d’agrumes avec une pointe de caramel fruité. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture huileuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Arrière goût houblonné. (Rating #2256)

Hazy orange-copper with slim, thick tan head. Fruity aroma is peach and paw paw. Soft mouthfeel and low carbonation. Thin body but lingering grassy hop finish. Not my favorite in the lineup but pretty good, easy going hopped pale.

Appearance: Clear, amber-hued body with a thin, wispy, white head. Smell: Bright floral, citrusy hop nose with a faint scent of pale malts in back. Taste: Meager pale maltiness and accompanying sweetness. Flash of florals and lemony citrus followed by a burst of hop bitterness. A touch acidic. Slight, lingering bitterness on the dry finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: A sessionable, low-ABV brew, made with coastal town-visiting tourists in mind.

2008 Southern Brewers Fest . Tap. Amber color. Aroma of pine hops. Smells like a bag of hops! Flavor of a decent malted brew with a bold hop bitterness. Nice hop florals Tasty. Tasty.

on tap at the brewpub. Wow, what an underrated pale ale. This is a hazy gold color with a good head. The nose sports nicely pronounced hops with lots of citrus like clean grapefruit, orange, and some wooden bitterness. The flavor is clean and dry leaning though certainly crisp and refreshing. Lots of citrus is evident in the flavor while maintaining a commendable balance and admirable realization of a now classic American style. Very solid offering.
