I visited the oceanside ale works for a tasting. It was fun with many people (~20) drinking and talking. Simple, good everyday beer for most people. I’m into strong interesting beers, so i didn’t rate it high, but it’s good for it’s category of lighter beers.

Aroma: Light sweet malty aroma. Low hop aroma. Appearance yellow to deep gold in color tinge or orange. Good retention. Flavor-initial soft malty sweetness, slight caramel flavort Low bitterness, but the balance is the malt. Finishes somewhat sweet. Mouthfeel: medium-full body. High carbonation. Smooth without harsh bitterness or astringency. Overall Impression: Easy-drinking, approachable, malt-oriented brew
