Commercial Description:
An adult goose leads the goslings. We can relate. As one of the first microbreweries to open for business in the Mid-Atlantic region, we’ve blazed a trail for other craft brewers. Our wild goose XPA is a classic English style ale best enjoyed with a Chesapeake bay sunset and a friend. wildgoosebrewery.com 5.0% Alc/Vol IBU: 27

Pours gold with a thin white head. Smells earthy and perfumy. Tastes sweet and rosey with a toasty finish.

The aroma is very malty and hoppy with a hint of biscuit yeast. The appearance is golden with an amber hue and an average head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. Overall it’s good.

Appearance: Pours a clear, gold body with a thinnish, wispy, white head. Smell: Simply put, it’s a nose of light, delicate pale malts reasonably supported by some spicy, zesty hop notes. Taste: Mild pale maltiness with just a small hint of crystal sweetness in the fore. Spicy, earthy hops with a minute addition of citrus. Fairly restrained bitterness throughout, but, don’t get me wrong, it’s more than enough to maintain control. Finishes dry with that (still relatively light) bitterness still lingering around. Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Politely average! Don’t go in think it’s an Extra Pale Ale where it’s a pale ale plus a little extra. No, it’s an Extra Pale Ale where it’s a pale ale dialed down a bit.

12oz bottle. Shallow amber color. Aroma of bubblegum, floral hops. Flavor is a simple malt, followed by a sharp, crisp hop bitterness. Slow drinking, not because it is strong or rich... It tastes like puke.

(bottle - 12 oz) Amber color with a fizzy and puffy white head. Aroma is mild and spicy with some good hints of citrus, floral notes, herbs, and some nuts. Flavor begins with a nice and apparent floral hop bite, followed by some notes of pepper, earth, wood, dry hops, and a little caramel malt. Watery and very cloying with the bitterness.
