Pike Naughty Nellies Ale

Brewed by Pike Pub & Brewery
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Seattle, Washington USA

A light aroma of fruit and malt. Light amber color with a white head that was not huge. Starts fruity, like stone fruit, then orange develops. The cabonation is moderate and it is less than medium bodied. The malt sweetness is not harsh or roasted, but it is noticeable in the finish, where a light fruity bitter is also present. Very drinkable. It gets even tastier as consumption proceeds.

Picked up single 12-oz bottle at Bottleworks in Seattle, Washington. Pours a clear golden amber brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaaves behind a white ring . Aroma of ligh bready malt, some grapefruit zest, flowery hops and a touch of biscuit. Taste is light to medium bodied, lightly carbonated with a bready and citrus zest flavor. Finish is slighly bitter that has a lingering bitter aftertaste.

Lt gold color, medium head. Light and refreshing, slightly fruity. Some hop bite, nice balance. Medium bodied. Full flavor. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is hoppy and bitter.

This draft brew from the brewery poured a head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were long lasting and left behind a transparent softly carbonated orange colored body and a good lacing. The mild aroma was malty. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The nice flavor contained notes of malt and piney hops. A decent one that I would consider buying again.

(Bottle) Purchased a 6-pack at the 6-Mile for $13.65. Reasonable price, I think considering the local Phillips goes for ~$12.50. Pours an amber body with a mildly carbonated white head. Nose of milky malt and a mildly lemon aroma. Flavour is Slightly hoppy with a fruity malt base. The finish was a tad tart.

Draft at Pike, Seattle, WA. White small head that was mostly lasting, decent amount of lacing, transparent, visible carbonation, and a yellow hue. Nose was malty, moderately hoppy and sweet. Flavor was crisp, malty and moderately hoppy. Smooth mouthfeel and medium body. Quaffable, decent brew for the style.

Dark golden appearance, light spritzy white head. Faint floral aroma with a touch of spruce. Light fruitiness to the flavor, pears perhaps? Faint citrusy undertone with a slighlty nutty finish. Mouthfeel is ok. All in all, a most pleasant diversion.

Draft at the brewpub. Poured a clear orange color. Head was off white and left some decent lace behind. Aroma was of light citrusy hops and graham cracker. Tasted of pine needles and grainy malt with mild to moderate hop bitterness. i liked this one.
