Old Schoolhouse Brewery

Got in a BIF from snaotheus. 16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 4/6/22. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy golden amber color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head. Good head retention, spotty soapy lacing, and moderate streaming carbonation. Aromas and flavors of big red grapefruit, tangerine, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, guava, berries, citrus rind, cedar, mint, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, toast, herbal, floral, grass, yeast earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus rind, herbal, woody, spicy bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation and body; balanced creamy/bready malts and sticky hops in the mouthfeel. Some lingering resin drying after the finish, minimal hop astringency. Mild warmth of 6.9% and hop burn after the finish. Great profile of Mosaic, Azacca, Simcoe, Loral hops. Great balance between juicy and vibrant/dank/earthy hop notes; with a nicely soft oat/spelt malt backbone. No complaints.

Appearance is hazy with a light golden yellow color. Low head retention and minimum lacing on the glass.

It has a juicy, sweet fruity aroma to it. Almost has a slight funky smell but not much else is detectable.

The aroma mirrors the taste, very juicy and fruit forward with a minimal malt profile. It's soft and light making it very drinkable. No complex or unique flavors, it's simple but good. Medium body with minimal bitterness and moderate carbonation.

This is a good NE style hazy from Old Schoolhouse. It's simple, juicy and drinkable.

 

 

16oz can (no date) poured into 14oz teku. Poured a fully murky pale yellow color with an inch of white head that had low retention and lacing.

Upon the crack of the can, a big blast of hip, cool, modern, joosy hops popped forth. Once in the glass, no malt/grain were found.

Same story on the tongue; just frooty hops.

The body was the typical thin, but had good carbonation throughout.

Drinkability was fine, for the style.

Overall, an other average-ish murkbomb.
