Commercial Description:
An ale that tastes like a lager. Brewed with noble Saaz hops and coriander seeds. Compliments grilled chicken.

This is the 2nd worst beer I’ve ever had, topped only by Olivers Vanilla Ice. This was as bland a beer as one could make. It wasn’t bad, but it was like drinking a warm, flat Natty Light from an old keg in college because you can’t get any other kind of beer. This had no aroma and no taste. It was also served from a hideously dirty draft line. Since this was brewed on-site, I fault The Wharf Rat for the serving conditions. I would avoid self-brews at The Wharf Rat at all costs.

A hazy yellow beer with no head. The aroma is sweet spicy with notes of coriander. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of coriander, and the body is a bit thin.

Nitro... Mostly clear, yellow ale with a small, creamy, white, permanent head. Grainy, citrusy aroma. Big notes of mash... smells like a brewery. The flavor is also grainy with good balance. Very earthy with huge wood and must. Thin. Light-bodied with fragile carbonation. Finishes grainy and watery. I can almost taste the entire grain bill. Interesting. Different.
