Combustion Brewery & Taproom

I got a couple of tall boy cans of this beer from their Clintonville, Ohio location. It poured a clear amber with no head and no lace. The scent had mild malt notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with caramel malt base with subtle bittering hop presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.

32 ounce crowler, filled yesterday at the taproom (3/16), best by date of 3/18 written on the label. Served in a Combustion Brewing pint glass, the beer pours a mostly clear reddish/amber color with not quite an inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both good. The brew smells mostly like toasted and caramel malt, along with some earthy hoppiness. Taste is similar to the aroma, which starts off sweet and has a dry finish. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, it's smooth and really easy to drink with a good amount of carbonation. I think it's a good straight forward Irish style ale, just a good all around brew. Been drinking this a lot at Combustion lately, figured I'd pick up a crowler for home! I think this was $9 (maybe less) for a crowler, certainly worth having a pint or 2 of this if you stop at the taproom!
