Finback Brewery - Glendale

 

A: The beer is very hazy yellow in color and has some whitish hues. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that died down and left lots of specks of bubbles covering the surface.
S: Moderate aromas of lime are present in the nose along with notes of watermelon. As the beer begins to warm up, the flavors of watermelon become stronger and stand out more prominently compared to those of the lime.
T: The taste has more balanced flavors of watermelon and lime along with a bit of saltiness in the finish.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation. Only a faint amount of crispness is perceptible.
O: I thought that the taste of this beer initially had some unusual flavors but after it warmed up a tad the flavors began to meld together and it became much more drinkable.

Serving type: can

Can from the brewery in Queens during 2020 COVID pause. Pours a hazy straw yellow with limited head and lacing, smell is melon with piney citrus candy, hints of lime zest and bready malts, taste follows the nose with melon and pineapple up front, muted lime flesh and nice citrus pith, finishes with a cool wash of watermelon rind, this beer is light and refreshing, borders on thin and has a pinch of hop burn. A citrusy watermelon treat.
