De La Playa
RŌM Beer Co. (DeLahunt Brewing)

Poured from 16oz can into a dimpled mug. Looks to have been packaged 12/10/24.

Appearance: pale golden hue with a dash of haze and a finger of frothy eggshell foam atop.

Smell: sweet with a bit of a corny character and a light spicy note, either from hops or fermentation. Not too bad; it's appropriate to the style.

Taste: the flavor is actually quite good, especially for an AAL. There's a good malt flavor with less of the corniness that was in the aroma, and a rather bracing hop character. Pretty solid!

Mouthfeel: light body with a decent enough carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: a very drinkable beer -- lowish ABV and light and refreshing, though certainly not without flavor. Not bad at all!

Crystal clear golden brew with long-lasting foam in the big IPA glass. Modest but appealing aroma of grain. Sudsy mouthfeel with a tangy finish. This is just a little sweet but in a very nice way. The taste is cereal and crisp beeriness. There's a bitterish aftertaste that is just right. If you're going to be in the basement beer category, you should make a good example and RŌM did. Highly drinkable and actually flavorful light-light beer. From the 16 oz can purchased at O'Shea Brewing. Date not quite legible.
