Aloha Ami-gose
Brutopia Brewery

On-tap 4/28/2017 at Brutopia in Cranston, RI, served in a tulip glass.

A: The beer is a light yellow color, with a short white head that fades slowly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.

S: The aroma contains pineapples, light malts, wheat and a faint touch of hops.

T: The taste starts out with a quick burst of pineapple sweetness that is quickly followed by a typical Gose-like mild breadiness from wheat and a thin malt character. Then some saltiness comes in. The hops presence is very mild but there’s a good balance as the beer transitions into some mild tartness in the after-taste.

M: Crisp and smooth, light body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.

O: Tasty, goes down easily, not filling at all, very mild kick, good representation of style, this is a decent beer to drink for a while if you’re in the mood for the style.
