Tucks Little Johns Small Ale

Formerly brewed at Tucks Brewery
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Portland, Oregon USA

A rich golden ale, with a small frothy head. This has a very big malt character, but the hop character is rather bitter, with a small bit of astrigency, mouthfeel could have a bit more depth. A small beer in disguise

Pours deep gold with a medium white head. This small ale was way better than any other small beer i’ve had in the past. Much more maltiness up front and actually having some good body to the beer. Finish is bitter and hoppy. I was expecting a lot less body and malt for a small beer and this is better than many company’s pales.

A strange concoction made from the run off of their barleywine. Dull, dark yellow color. Taste is quite bitter and very dry. Hints of alcohol, but this adds to the beer rather than detracts. A beer worth another evaulation and another pint.
