Month of Sundays Amarillo Pale Ale
Lost Forty Brewing

 

On tap at the brewery.

A: Pours a slightly hazed golden yellow color. A two finger white head forms with excellent retention and lots of lace left behind.
S: Plenty of hops up front, at at first a bit dank and earthy. Pine, citrus, lemon, all very bright and fruity. Not particularly complex, but it doesn't need to be. Well done simple and enjoyable aroma.
T: Follows the nose, with all the hop flavors up front. Pine, citrus, and lemon rind. Just a touch of grainy malts, and a lingering bitterness that brings everything together.
M/O: A medium body with great carbonation. Crisp, dry, and super clean. Which all leads to a really easy drinking Pale Ale. Something I can come back to with ease.

This is a great hoppy pale ale, with enough bite, brightness, and body to keep me wanting to come back. Really well done, and something I will love to have again when I get a chance to travel through Little Rock. Lost Forty made another excellent Pale Ale.

 

Beautiful straw gold color, just the slightest bit of haze, a hair away from perfectly clear. Good head production, retention, and lacing.

Nose is bright, citrusy, piney, grainy, and slightly dank.

Crisp and clean on the palate; grassy, very light citrus, pepper, cracker, and pale grains. Slightly dank finish. Semi-dry finish, with some lingering hop oils. Moderate bitterness.

This drinks quite like how I would prefer a session IPA come across: easy drinking, full of hop flavor, but without abandoning the malt backbone. It's not weak or light. Very good IPA overall.

 

 

 

 

 

Pours a lighter golden color. The head is 2 finger, white, frothy, and has great retention.
The nose is slightly hoppy. Nothing too strong, but pleasing.
Taste - light and crisp with a nice hop finish. Again, nothing too crazy, just pleasing.
The body is decent. Hops linger in my the back of my throat.
Delicious and very easy drinking beer. Would be perfect for a hot summer day.

 

 

 

Thanks Russ.
Poured into a a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a semi-bright murky yellow/pale orange color. A finger and a half worth's of white foamy head slid off at a fair pace. Lace somewhat stuck in rings around the glass.
The aroma had a nice blend of sweet to bitter citrus pulp and rind flowing into some piney sweetness and a touch of sweet floral character.
The flavor leads with a hoppy sweetness then develops a nice balance with some bitterness. Some maltiness but mainly cracker//white breadish. Fairlyous hoppiness in the aftertaste.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt on par. Piney/resinous gripping sort of finish.
Overall, very APA well worthy of coming back to.

Pours a hazy (not completely murky/non-transparent) orange with a finger of white head. It continues to maintain a hazy appearance after the final ounces are poured into the glass. Head is white in color with a finger and a half forming, and retaining fairly well. Aroma is tangerine, melon, lemon dew, mango, and floral. Those go from strongest to lightest. Light biscuit and bread malts form a light, doughy backdrop. Flavor profile is driven via citrus and floral/herbal. The two mash together fairly well with the latter consuming a slight majority of the yin-yang relationship. Biscuit malts are present, but an after thought to the hops. Mouth feel is slightly grainy and, unfortunately, makes it slightly abrasive. It has a medium-thin consistency. Overall, a beer that mingles hops well, creating a crisp feeling. Very flavorful for a 5.5% ABV beer.

Served in a 12oz snifter from a 12oz can.

Pours a hazed amber with one finger+ of cream colored head. Nice lacing & above average head retention

S: Citrus & mangos

T: Pomelo, a touch lemongrass, dryness & faint bready sweetness up front. A little grapefruit pith as this warms along with some breadyness& a little dryness. Finishes with some grapefruit bitterness/citrus & a touch of dryness

MF: Medium body, restrained carbonation

Too easy to drink, lovely balance on this one
