Otter Creek Otter Summer Ale

Brewed by Otter Creek Brewing
Style: Wheat Ale
Middlebury, Vermont USA

clear, light-pale golden good carbonation. thin head on my bottle..hmmm, this happens to me a lot, i need to rethink my pouring habits..anyway, yep, earthy hops in the aroma as previously, also detect a slight citrus quality? flavor is similar, but overall is quite thin. the finish reminds me of a crappy lager that is cardboardy..it's there, or at least it is to me.

Aroma; Hops up front, caramel slightly burnt, some spice. Gold, some white head. Flavour was unusually hop-earthy, with did not do any good.

Slightly hazy golden colour. Earthy-spicy hop nose. Grapefruity hops and accompanying bitterness. Light wheaty notes, with hints of bread and orange. Slighty crisp finish.

Debilitating, clear and bubbleless costume much like the awful Messagère...A unimpressive, milky wheat aroma with a touch of sugary lemon rind don't make me want to dive in...Anemic, minty wheat sifting through diluted cream...A decimated, watery finish invokes the macros...Should come with chicken wings...

The color is very light. The smell is a bit lemony. The taste is quite smooth and light. Overall this is an average wheat beer.

This is a plain looking pale beer with little head or lacing. The aroma is slightly sweet with sour notes, hints of lemon and a touch of bitterness. The flavor is rather weird. I can't expain all the weirdness, but I did notice bitter and woody notes, with wheaty accents. It's light on the palate and slightly dry. I'm not a huge fan of wheat beers but this one is really not to my liking. I won't be looking for this beer ever again.

Crystal clear, light yellow ale. Medium-sized, frothy, white head. Hearty, rich and doughy aroma. Lightly spicy as well. The flavor is malty with notes of honey and light caramel. Well-balanced with barely tart and bitter hops. Medium-bodied with a silky mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Short, tart finish... dryish, though. Good Summer brew!

Bottled. Poured a golden yellow color with a small white head. It had a slight malt nose with a slight malt taste. As the name implies, this is a summer beer, due to its light tasting characteristics. There is nothing wrong with that, as long as the label lets you know what you're getting...and it does. This is a good summer session beer. I will definately try this again when I'm in the mood for a light, drinkable beer.
