Sun Camp
Dewey Beer Co.

Blonde, but malty with a late and sharp finish that took me by surprise.

 

 

on draft, served in pint glass

medium yellow golden in color, white head. Citrusy orange hop aroma. similar taste, with a pleasantly bitter finish. medium bodied.

12oz can into a pint glass. Another brewery that proclaims, "drink fresh", but doesn't date their cans. So sick of this.

Lightly hazy medium orange/yellow body. Small white head persists in decent form throughout. Specks of lacing. Aroma is lightly of tropical fruit. On tasting, hints of orange citrus, lightly hoppy, which lasts well into the finish.

Overall, another west coast light with some citrus notes. Decent for the summer.

 

Lighter, crisp and flavorful, Dewey Beer rolls a blend of new and old hops together for a retro-IPA taste.

Sun Camp brightens the day with a tarnish lemon stained pour and a creamy white froth before swooning the nose with a bold perfume of citrus, tropical fruit, grassy herbs and a slight winey scent. Once its sweetness splashes the tongue, the foundation of malt is cracker-like with honey, lightly toasted granola and a hint of caramel. But once the hops of Hallertau Blanc, Mosaic, Columbus and Strata make their mark the rest of the session steers toward fruitiness. Orange, grapefruit, apricot, mango, pineapple, passionfruit and grape all bring a bright, zesty and juicy taste before trending bitter with peppery pine, fresh grass clippings and hemp.

Medium bodied yet trending lighter and drier, the session resides on the bitter side of balance and favors dryness over sweetness for a juicy IPA that is a balance of both bitter and hazy camps.

The beer is a clear golds color. A one inch white head disappears quickly. No lace.
Aroma of sweet malt and pine resin.
Taste of caramel, pine.
Moderately bitter.

Drinking out of a pint glass.
Pours a clear light orange.
Smells some of corn.
Ok mouth feel.
Some bitterness.
Maybe a little resin pine taste.
Ok. Not great.

 

This is a not a good beer. Color was the best part. Nice amber color. Nose had a funky fruitiness. Taste was very diacetyl. Not much bitterness to speak of. This one was a sink pour

 

Rich golden clear appearance with one finger of quickly fading white head, no lacing. Pine, resin, bitter hop, faint floral background. Medium body, lively carbonation.

 

Picked this up at Gateway Liquors in Thurmont after hiking and birding at nearby Catoctin Mountain park. This has a light golden color but almost no head at all. Flavor is orange and lemon and bread note. Taste is similar, with lemon zest setting it up for your pine based hops but the bitterness is really kind of moderate. This is easy to drink, but otherwise forgettable.

 

Drank a little weird for me, i detect some citrus or unusual undertone. A different IPA, would not put 100% in the west coast category, this was OK for a different IPA taste profile, but no one i would eagerly repeat on. Did not remind of traditional West Coast IPA, so definitely a different slant.

Pours a hazy golden color with a nice head and lacing
Aroma has tropical and citrus hints
Taste has a tropical and citrus flavor
A medium bodied well carbonated beer
A good IPA

Pale gold with a small white head and little in the way of lacing. Herbal, spicy, dank aroma. Taste is a bit more resinous as is the citrus. Some tropical fruit peeking out but not in a distracting way. Malts stay in the background and help maintain balance. Well carbonated, medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, a decent selection. It provides a clean, crisp, resinous, moderately bitter offering that is in tune with the WCIPA style.
