Sexy Weekend
Sideswipe Brewing

This beer is greater than the sum of its parts. Nothing overly special, but fun light beer/table beer is done very well. Good with food and won't put you on the floor. I'd imagine this will work well for a summer/tailgating beer when the season turns.

12 ounce can, canned on 4/11/18. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a mostly clear pale gold color with about an inch frothy white head that stayed around for a while. There's also a good amount of lacing. The brew smells like citrus peel, lemon, floral hops and some bready/grainy malt. I think the taste is pretty just like the aroma, with citrus peel, lemon, floral hop, peppery spice and bready/grainy malt flavors. Has a nice citrusy finish, not really bitter at all. Mouthfeel/body is light, it's a bit coating and is easy to drink with a good amount of carbonation. I thought this was quite an enjoyable "table" beer, great for drinking on a hot day like this! If you're expecting a strongly hopped Pale Ale you'll likely be disappointed, but if you want a nice drinkable brew then you'll probably like it as much as I did. $8.99 a 6-pack.

 

 

This beer is proof that low ABV doesn’t have to mean it will be missing flavor. Easy drinking with a citrus and floral hop aroma and flavor without the bitterness you would get in an IPA or pale ale.

Pilsner malt gives it its light color base and minimal additions of specialty malts and bittering hops keep it clean and crisp. It is then heavily dry-hopped to add aroma and flavor without adding bitterness.
