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 poured clear gold, like apple juice. Aroma of tart apple, faint grain. Taste is very apple, very tart, with some light grain, though very faint. This is easier drinking than several apple juices. Very crisp and refreshing. I haven’t had too many fruit beers, but this one seems to be three parts fruit, one part beer. Overall, very refreshing, tastey brew.

Pours chill hazy amber, with some malt aroma and a flavor dominated by tart apple, wheat and touch of oak.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of Petrucci914. Pours a clear apple juice color with the smallest of white films for a head. The aroma is apple, apple, and more apple, sweet and pleasant. The flavor reminds me of when my grandpa would pile all of the grandkids in the hunk of junk and drive us to Rouster’s to sit in front of the fireplace and drink the fresh apple cider. I enjoyed this as much for the flashback as the beer itself.

Bottle: Yum, yum in my tum. I could drink this for breakfast with my eggs and toast. It has a clear cider look with aromas and flavors of tart green apples. It’s all apple, you almost forget there is alcohol in it. I picture hobbits drinking this a lot.

Bottle unplugged. Nice golden hue, aroma buttered popcorn and apple. Taste is apple juice/cider with some spice aftertaste. Not bad.

Bottle (Unplugged Apple Ale) Pours out a crisp clear gold apple juice. Topped with no head. Just a very nice apple aroma. the Aroma was of sweet apples and a touch of spice. The tast was juice all apple juice all the time. Crazy sweet and a hint of spice. Thanks Toby

12 oz bottle courtesy of discount liquors (milwaukee, wi). Pours a nice sustained golden hue, transparent, with moderate bubbly white head that dissipates to a film, well carbonated. Laces well, surprisingly. Aromas are a nice apple feel, crisp, good sweetness, with grainy notes. Apple sauce? Yum. Initial is a nice apple sweetness, nothing cloying, with some mellow grainy sweetness. Largely, a mellow apple juice / apple sauce feel. Finishes crisp but sweet, flavorful. Very nice and sessionable.

Bottle: Bright gold and ciderlike in appearance. No head. Smells like apple juice and tastes like apple juice. Sweet and fruity with some mild carbonation. Barely a hint of cidery type spices in the tail. Uninspiring.
