Fields of Green (Oscar)
Fort George Brewery + Public House

This beer knocked my socks off, nice tropical fruit nose, sweet stone fruit taste and the almost milkshake thick mouth feel lends itself to a most unique beer. I really enjoyed this one.

 

 

Pint can poured in to a nonic glass. Canned on 02/21/20

Look- Murky golden orange color, solid bone white head that slowly recedes to a thin cap, ample lacing. Light carbonation streaming as it sits.

Smell- Citrus (grapefruit, lemon and lime), pineapple, passion fruit and mango, a bit of peach and dank melon, grainy malt, white pepper and other herbal notes.

Taste- Similar to the aroma, pithy citrus with under ripe tropical fruits, a bit of stone fruit and melon, white pepper and earthy hop notes.

Feel- Medium bodied, pretty dry with a fairly aggressive bitter finish, well balanced. Moderate carbonation on the tongue.

O- A solid west coast attempt at a NE hazy.

Poured from a 16 ounce can into a tulip glass.

Look- Pale gold, hazy, zero visibility, frothy white head, above average head retention and lacing.

Smell- Tropical, melon, pineapple.

Taste- Melon, grassy, pineapple, very slightly piney.

Feel- Medium body, average carbonation, smooth finish.

Brand-spanking-new 16oz can poured into a snifter.
