650ml bottle - a benefit brew that helps a local animal rescue group. Well, here's my two bits.
This beer pours a clear, medium copper amber colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and mildly bubbly ecru head, which leaves some wisping campfire smoke lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of dank pine resin, some faint muddled tropical fruitiness, gritty and grainy pale malt, a subtle earthy yeastiness, and further leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is bready and crackery pale malt, still indistinct and weak exotic fruity notes, a lesser domestic citrus peel thing, dead yeast, and more understated earthy, musty, and wet hay-like hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-supporting frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with not much going on that might interfere here, as such. It finishes trending dry, the various components all coalescing on the idea of being sugar-free.
Overall, this is a pretty bland ale, the purported tropical fruit flavours never really materializing. Nothing really off about it otherwise, so what we're left with is a plain, easy enough to drink brew, one that will probably attract more charitable coin than something more assertive, I suppose, and that's the only good thing here.
