Man O' War
Tree House Brewing Company

 

Inspired by famous racehorse Man O'War, Tree House finds the perfect reason to put New York grown Triumph hops into a hazy pale ale.

And the beer that carries the namesake of that legendary horse pours with a matte and cloudy burn orange appearance while carrying a dense sepia froth onto the nose. A host of tropical and citrus perfumes come with herbal notes of hemp and patchouli. A full flavored sweetness of shortcake laces with vanilla, coconut, cereal and cookie dough before the hops arrive. Bold flavors of pineapple, lime, tangerine, passionfruit, nectarine, grape and apricot flood the tastebuds for that quintessential Tree House character. Trending bitter and slightly more crisp, its finish is herbaceous with spruce tip, cannabis, tea leaf, peppery mint, fruit peels and all wrapped in a gently sweet balance of cantaloup.

Full for a pale ale but overall flavorful and hop filled, Man O'War is a milder take on their hazy IPA but is ultimately another classic Tree House beer.

Purchased as part of a 4 pack from the brewery in Charlton, MA 6/14/25. Pours a golden hazy color with a full head. Subtle tropical fruit notes with some hint of pine. Bitterness upfront followed by muted citrus and earthy flavors. Moderate mouthfeel. Overall, solid.

Not pale at all :) Looks like a hazy IPA.
Cloudy, orange juice colored with a foamy, white head. Smells more like a hazy as well. Nose hints at tropical fruits and citrus. This beer does taste like a mix of pale ale and hazy, more pale ale flavors come up. Sweetness and light malts come through on back of palate
