Was Angeles
Uinta Brewing Company

 

 

This is real good. Little earthy, grassy noble hop flavor. Light, attenuated and nicely carbed. I could drink a lot of this beer.

Clear bright yellow with plenty of foam in the wine glass. Sudsy and mouthfilling. Aromatic with lemon and alfalfa. A pleasing hop note with some berry flavors, pear, and cereal. Pleasantly malty with clean beery taste all the way. Less hoppy than the pale ales, but crisp and tangy. Better than average Lager and highly quaffable. From the 12 oz can dated 03/30/23.

 

 

Clear pale gold with a short off-white bubbly foam head.

An excellent take, made only more clear by having finished their other pilsner just prior, this is slightly sweeter, like white cornbread with a lightly uplifting floral quality that's also got a faint hint of strawberry before finishing bone dry. Or is it amaretto?

Either way, it's got a unique accent that makes it intriguingly quaffable.

America would be a better place if Was Angeles were to replace all of the Coors and Yuenglings in the world. Uinta's take on an American adjunct works perfectly well as a beer of yore, if your yore is the 1960-80s. Don't know if it has any adjunct ingredients (probably not) but it's not going to make you sick like a Coors is going to. This is what the Mountain West needs as its regular, working Joe's beer.

 

12 oz can. Pours clear gold with almost no head. Some light carbonation. Aroma: malt, straw, cracker. Taste: sweet malt, pilsner hops, cracker. Not hoppy, more on the sweet side but it works. Slightly more bitter in the finish. Pretty tasty, I see more of this in my future.

 

i like this beer a lot, like the branding, and think an easy going yellow beer in their lineup is a fine addition. as with most of these, its best when ice cold, tastes cleanest and crispest then, and doesnt warm up overly favorably, but you dont let it, thats the key, and its not hard as this is super light in body, minimal in taste, and well enough carbonated to be snappy on the way down. it doesnt quite have a lager yeast flavor to me, but its definitely a pils type malt base, simple, dry cerealy, and maybe a touch european, but definitely lighter here than any of the others they make. the hops are almost nonexistent in the finish, but i dont mind, i dont need some robust czech pils in the context of a slammer, and to me this has fine balance without the hops. with a beer like this, i just want it to be clean and dry, free from anything metallic or cheap tasting, and not too watery, and this hits wonderfully on the mouthfeel for me. if i lived in utah this might be a fridge staple, a mindless pounder thats ahead of the curve in its class. wonderful refresher after a fun day on the slopes!
