Everything But The Stick
Noble Ale Works

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Reviewed from notes. On tap at the Hermosillo for Woodshop 8.

A: Pours a hazy orange with a half-inch thick white head which fades slowly leaving some spotty lace.

N: Sweetish oranges, faint malts. Mild aroma.

T: Spot on orange creamsicle, but without the stick. Amazing, but can only drink a few sips before it becomes cloying and dull.

M: Medium body and nitro delivered moderate carbonation. Smooth and creamy, just like a orange ice cream.

O: Unique and novel. Not interested in having it again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

On nitro tap at Tony's Darts Away in Burbank, CA.

Pours a hazy reddish-orange with a foamy khaki head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of orange cream candy and popsicle aromas. Taste is much the same with malt, orange cream, and alcohol flavors on the finish. This beer has a low level of carbonation with an almost flat mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer that is an interesting idea but it doesn't seem all that beer like.

had on tap yesterday at Noble Ale.... the pour is awesomely beautiful! almost an off-orange, with lots of carbonation on the draw and huge billowy head. smells just like the original 50/50 Creamsicle! as intended. taste is not as pronounced of the Creamsicle as the aroma but definitely there. an interesting brew, very very creative, indeed! but more of a novelty in my opinion and so sweet I couldn't drink more than a taster from the flight. excellent in creativity, beautiful in appearance, okay in taste. but how does one rate the aroma when it is more of an ice cream aroma than a barley aroma on a beer rating site?
