Commercial Description:
Apple Ale sings with the fresh crisp taste of Wisconsin Apples. Our brewmaster begins with a brown ale base employing Wisconsin farmed wheat and a blend of Cortland, MacIntosh and Jonathan apples. Our apple growing friends squeeze them especially for this brew. Expect this ale to pour a beautiful copper color. The fresh bouquet of Apple will rise to meet you even before the glass touches your lips.

Bottle. Very sweet one dimentional beer. Tastes like Mott’s apple juice with a bit of carbonation. Too sweet and not layered at all. A let down from the other superb NG beers I have had.

Nice and appley. This is an apple beer. Nice apple pie aroma. Almost cider like but has a beer like carbonation. Sweet and good.

Bottle thanks to Bman1113vr. Pours a light brown with a small head. The aroma is a pleasant mix of apple, cinnamon, butter, brown sugar and honey. The taste is apply, but not overwhelmingly so, with a nice buttery cinnamon backdrop. Effervescent mouthfeel.

Bottle thanks to Daknole (I think). Pours with a frothy, lightly off-white head over a golden body. Head leaves great lace. Aroma is spiced with slight tangy, apple pie filling with some citrus zest, simple syrup and buttered crust. This beer smells to apple pie, what Pumpking smells to pumpkin pie. Taste is sweet apples and caramelized, long duration with a sweet doughy finish. Sugary. Medium to high carbonation. Finishes dry.

CPLYFO 09. Pours a nice slightly hazy woody amber with a thin fizzy head. Aroma is apple cinnamon spice, apple pie, with a nice sweetness, green aplle, and a nice slight ice cider character. flavor is also sweet, green apple, caramel sweetness, toffee, green jolly rancher, real ice cider blended with a light sweet beer, smooth and easy to drink. 3.8%? Crap that sounds crazy- i would have thought from the nice residual sweetness it would be stronger. This experiment sure worked out well.

My Million Beer March Tasting. Sample from a bottle shared by me thanks to Skyview. Clear amber with a thin white head. Aroma is apples, brown sugar, apple peels, apple sauce. Taste is a fresh apple juice and brown sugar.

Bottle shared at the Smoke from the Oak release, I think by yobdoog. Pours a clean golden amber color. Aroma is sweet toasty apples, caramel, and vanilla. Sweet and light, with a light citrus finish. This was remarkable… some sort of cider/beer thing, unlike any other fruit beer, or cider I’ve had. Certainly could drink more of this one.

Bottle from Ryan. Thanks for this one. Interesting concept of a beer, I have been anxious to try this one and thank God Ryan could deliver :) Pours out a brown color without much of a head on it. Smell is basically nothing but apple, very little, if any, hops are included in this one. But that is to be expected. Taste is smooth, and like cold, carbonated apple cider. Really smooth, incredibly easy to drink. I could probably consume my weight in this. Nice stuff..
