Cactus Whacked-Us
Dewey Beer Co.

16oz can at share. Golden pour with small foamy white head. Aroma is agave, prickly pear, fruity. Taste is mildly sweet, fruity, notes of pear and cactus.

 

Poured into a clear pint glass. The beer poured out a golden color with a white head. The smell was like a pilsner should be. The taste was really good and the higher ABV is nice. This is a beer I will drink anytime I can.

On tap at Dewey Beer Co, Dewey Beach, DE.

Pours a clear yellow color. A modest head dissipates and yields a ring of lacing.

The nose opens rather cleanly without anything standing out in particular. However, soon I pick up some aromas of sweet cereal grains, biscuit and clean Pilsner malt.

Sweet overall with notes of doughy, yet crisp, malts and a touch of alcohol sweetness. Nevertheless, it is not too sweet as the malts have some dryness. Notes of honey, grainy and caramel malts are balanced by earthy and lemony hops that provide a touch of bitterness. The finish is dry with a light touch of alcohol spice.

Medium bodied and moderately carbonated. The mouthfeel is somewhat mouth coating due to the chewy malts, yet, it has some crispness to it.

I haven’t had too many examples from this style, however, this seemed solid. It did a good job of hiding the alcohol and was mostly clean; like a slightly amped up Pilsner.
