Kentucky Blue Light
Gravely Brewing Co.

12 ounce can, Recorded 102724 stamped on the side label. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a mostly clear gold color with about an inch off-white head. Head retention is good and there's a decent amount of lacing. Not too much to the aroma, the brew smells like grainy malt and some earthy hops. Taste is similar to the aroma but with more of a kick. There's grainy/bready malt, herbal hops and a bit of lemony flavors noticeable. Mouthfeel/body is light, it's easy to drink with a moderate amount of carbonation. Wouldn't mind trying a fresher batch of this in the future but with that being said I liked it.

 

 

How can we be so blue when supporting the Cats? It’s easy as the University of Kentucky teams up with Louisville’s Gravely Brewing for a tailgating beer of which its proceeds go to helping the Wildcats and their N.I.L efforts

Pale straw, clear and bubbly, Kentucky Blue Light gets the party going by greeting the nose with a grainy-sweet scent, light floral hops and a comfortable level of breadiness. Similary flavors splash the early palate with cereal, fresh grain and bread for a beer that starts out… like beer.

Its part-malt, part-grain taste extends over the middle palate where the lager dries out and the hops transition from floral to spicy with hints of fresh and peppery greens, and eventually an herbal bitterness of lemongrass and mint.

Light, brisk and bubbly, for an American light lager, the session is overly grainy and fuller than most industrialized lager. Off-clean and with hints of sulfur, the beer resembles Miller Genuine Draft, but when supporting your team and tailgating then who cares?

Light copper and color with a nice thin white head. Everything about it says typical light logger, easy drinking, and clean tasting. Being a local craft beer it’s much better than the mainstream beers
