Pike Naughty Nellies Ale

Pours a slightly hazy gold with a tall, foamy white head. Slightly sweet lemony aroma with a slightly bready quality. The flavor is also a little sweet and citrusy with a light caramel flavor at first and an almost negligible hop finish. Easy to drink summer beer though.

Look is golden in color, cloudy, with a thinnish off white head. Smell is hops, malts, caramel. The feel is almost sticky with its medium body. Taste is some hop bitterness, malts, fruit, and floral. Off to me.

Straw gold coming out or the bottle, small white head, settles to a clean film. Clean glass drawing down, no lacing. A refreshing drink for the warm months of winter, like December in Austin where it is 75 right now as I enjoy this beverage on my back porch with Patek beer and bratwurst. Good pilsener aroma with skuny hoppiness and a little gum. Flavor is reminiscent of a good time. Drink this beer when life is good, save it for when its not.

05.11.2008. On Tap at the brewpub. The Pike Brewing Co, Seattle, Wa. The colour is golden. Aroma is soft malty. Tha malt they use is organic.

Bottle from MOC in Ashland, OR. Poured a dim gold, but most of it was dim. Kinda fruity, kinda floral, a little bready, kinda metallically, kinda not great.

Bottle: Pours a light gold with a decent white frothy cap that lasts and laces. Aromas of fruits and grass with some light maltiness. Bright citrus hops balance a soft biscuity malt discernment finishes mild with a faint hint of pear. Decent quaffing ale.

Pours an orange-ish yellow out of the bottle. Head is minimal and a bright white. Arom is of very floral, has a hint of citrus and bread. Flavor is of orange and lemon peel, like tasting the pith of a citrus fruit. Bitter, watery and kind of a let down after the aroma.

Bottle from PC Market of Choice in Ashland, OR. This was a very average beer. Clean dry fruity flavor. Just like many others I got the slighty off metallic finish.
