Daze Of Summer
O'Fallon Brewery

 

Good summer weight beer. Mid weight taste with citrus and mild aftertaste. Overall very pleasant lighter beer

 

Tastes like a lemonade shandy, but leaning more towards the the beer side of the spectrum. Not bad though, fairly citrusy and refreshing. Worth a drink on a hot summer day.

 

sort of a shandy radler hybrid here, very lemony, but also a bit over the top and somewhat artificial tasting to me, like this could be refreshing if it were more authentic on the lemon side of things. however, it is nice and light, well carbonated, and fairly hoppy for something like this, a cool dry hop on it in the nose and at the end, setting it apart from the field a little bit. its light on the malt side of things, fragrant with the citrus, some orange worked into it too, at least to my senses, but less refreshing than it could be due to a sort of sweetened lemonade thing, this should be drier than it is, and the sugar doesnt seem to be from the malt, so its kind of out of place in something like this, soda-esque in a less than fully flattering way. still, while this tastes kind of cheap to me and a little inauthentic on the lemon side of things, i like the flavor pretty well and could drink a few of these before it became too much. fine for warm weather, a little dumbed down, but not bad overall.

 

Poured out a clear, bubbly golden yellow color with a small, white head of foam. It smelled of lemons, lemon peel and lemon pith. It tasted of lemons.

Copper colored with a moderate haziness. There's a fingernail of off white around the rim and covering the majority of the top. The aroma is initially of peach which eventually gives way to lemon lime. I'm tasting a very mellow cantaloupe blended with light crackery malt. The mouth is moderately carbonated and lightly fizzy.

Pours a cloudy amber color. 1/4 inch head of a white color. Slight retention and poor lacing. Smells of fruit, slight hops, slight wheat, soda (radler-esque). Fits the style of a Fruit / Vegetable Beer. Mouth feel is sharp and clean, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of fruit, slight hops, slight wheat, soda (radler-esque). Overall, weak appearance, poor blend, bottle states it is a wheat, but it tastes like a radler ...

From the pour to the nose thus one had me worried. It smelled too sweet. While it is sweet, there is alot going here. It has a tartness that that holds up the malt. Interesting easier type brew.

I usually don't like lemon beers...radlers are not my thing, and too much fruit can wreck an otherwise good brew. However, this one isn't bad. The appearance is a honey-gold color and the aroma is lightly citrus, backed with a twangy, musty scent. The taste is balanced, with an acidic tilt. Malt is notable, but kept well below the tartness. Lemon is dominant throughout the beer. Light-medium in body. Interesting, good, but not great.

 

 

 

 

 

Heavy citrus lemon followed by a crisp finish.

Taste Rating in Words: It's that clarifying/relaxing moment, after you realize you zoned out and completed a task. Greatness
