473ml can - I can't say the name of this offering NOT in the Trumpinator's affected voice.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, medium golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and mildly bubbly off-white heed, which leaves some random sudsy island group lace around the glass as it slowly seeps away.
It smells weakly of gritty and grainy cereal malt, some indistinct domestic citrus rind, a hard water stoniness, and plain leafy, spicy, and floral hop bitters. The taste is bready and grainy pale malt, still muddled generic citrus peel, a bit of musty yeastiness, some damp minerality, and more understated weedy, herbal, and floral green hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly inadequate in its palate-disappointing frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and not particularly smooth, as a certain pithiness arises shortly after the get-go. It finishes trending dry, the muted hops edging out any lingering malt aspirations.
Overall - yeah, I didn't realize that my opening remark was going to turn out to be foreshadowing. Just like 45's misuse of the world 'huge', Moody Ales fails to deliver on the promise. I can find no date code on the label, so I can't verify if I got expired product. Ah well, I'll still drink the rest of this whilst reading comedians Tweeting about politics, to keep with the motif.
