Northwoods Bumbln Bubbas Buzzn Brew

Brewed by Northwoods Brew Pub
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Eau Claire, Wisconsin USA

i smelled nothing here. poured a cloudy yellow. there was something wheaty about the flavor, but not much happening. another poor entry from northwoods.

Bottle: This seemed like a honey wheat gone bad. Pale straw colored and headless, I swear I could smell the honecomb wax in here. Very light in the flavor department, praise be. The finish was abrupt and welcomed.

Tap at the brewpub. Ultra light straw color with a thin dishwater white head. Light honey and caramel corn aromas, just in time for halloween. Flavors are not quite what I was expecting. Which is mildly surprising. A dry honey flavor, accentuated by a light clover finish. Really not much there, but decently made and quite drinkable.

Sour, stale, wheat aroma asails my nose...pours very flat and dead...flavors are timid, watery, and off. I am hearing that their fresh beer is actually decent. What is wrong with their bottles?

Pale gold color with a thin head. Slightly rotten, sweet aroma. Lots of and lots of bland goodness in the taste. Seriously, it’s just colored water. Not offensive, but just blah. Bad way to end a marathon trip through Wisconsin and Illinois.

Who is this Bubba and why does he bumble so? Why does his brew buzz? And why is his hat for sale? Let’s open and find out. Maybe it won’t be as bad as the last two I had... Clear, pale yellow color, no head at all, not even a sliver or a slice.Disappointing. Aroma: honeyish, sweet, then sharp, and sickly (I said it again)...after that, empty, vacant, and vapid. Taste: limp, flaccid, and signifying nothing. Pale, lifeless, containing no desirable qualities. Like getting down in a canoe, if you follow me... Extraordinarily light in body, lacking any kind of flavor, no finish...no start...not sure what they were trying to do with this one. They got the pale part right, but there’s nothing ale-ish about it, nor anything particularly pleasing. Very sad. Needs more beer in here.

Gold Coloring. Honey Aroma. Sweet Honey Taste...Albeit a very Subtle One... Light Hops Poking Out at the End and Some Very Light Spice In There as Well. Pretty Simple Straightforward Brew....Lacking Character or Depth.

Gitchee Gumee Brewfest 2005. Strong clover honey, backed with a blast of saffron. Never experienced these flavors in a beer. Unfortunately it lacks on all other fronts including appearance, nose, and palate. Watery and pretty bland finish.
