Lemon Drip
Green Cheek Beer Company

Murky pale yellow with a hint of a brown hue and a fat finger of creamy white head that settles into a nice crown that leaves almost no lacing.

Sharp lemon aroma that someone dropped a deuce in.

In the millisecond before the beer hits the tongue there's a definite impression of creamed coffee and fresh-baked bread, but it's soon overpowered by almost disinfectant-grade lemon. The lemon flavor drops pretty abruptly leaving a comparatively clean finish, with just a little tartness and some black tea character lingering in the aftertaste.

Medium bodied with strong carbonation that does have a lemonade-like feel to it.

I love the can art on this one and appreciate the effort. That's about it. The lemon's way too intense, overpowering most of the coffee and clashing with what's left.

Poured 16oz can into Weisse glass. Dark yellow with a 1 finger white head that quickly fizzes away. Aroma is definitely lemon Berliner with hints of coffee. Flavor is fermented wheat that is tart with fresh lemonade and sort of a coffee taste. It oddly works well and is quite refreshing on a warm evening, Worth a try.

What a great an unique Berliner. As a Berliner they nailed the look and feel. A little darker than pale gold but I'll chalk that up to the coffee. Nice head that vanishes quickly. Decent mouthfeel with a lot of carb. The smell and taste are almost exactly like an Arnold Palmer with a lot of lemon. The coffee is nice and light with a roasty quality that does a good job of being like black tea. Nice tart, sour, fresh lemon flavor with a dry finish. I am a fan of this beer.

Poured from 16oz can into Stone Brewing Goblet. No date.

L: Hazy light yellow, thin white head appears and disappears quickly as is with the style although a thin ring remains.

S: Tart fruity flavors with some coffee and chocolate back notes.

T: Extremely tart fruitiness that tastes like soap. Really gross.

F: Light crisp and dry.

O: This is nasty.

Quite a surprise.
Bright lemony citrus notes burst forth in both the aroma and the flavor. In lieu of the traditional approach to an Arnold Palmer using tea, this collar utilizes coffee. Sounds like a reach, but it totally works. The coffee gives an ever so subtle earthy, almost bitter hint, to tame the citrus dominance just a tad. It really is quite refreshing and spot on for what they were going for.

 

 

I was hesitant on this brew, so I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor. Coffee aroma, and Arnold Palmer flavor. Definitely recommend.
