Pale Ale
This single hopped Pale Ale detonates upon the palate with a brilliant array of dank, tropical fruit, grapefruit blossom, mandarin orange and blueberries. Golden Promise malt provides a clean base — a kaleidoscope of flavor delivered with the simplest of recipes.

Bomber shared by TJ on 7/24/16.
Smells lightly fruity with soft grapefruit and lots of grainy malt. Almost as malty as it is hoppy. Some earth and perfume, with light floral notes and a touch of tangerine. Very dull/muted and not compelling at all. No alcohol.
Peach and nectarine with thin, washed-out grainy flavors. Rhinegeist does not seem to brew a very good beer. Very poor malt extraction leaving too much grain, husk and light sourishness on the palate. Off flavors and vague, fruity-grapefruit. Light bitterness, perfume, I don’t know. This sucks.

22 oz. bottle, thanks to Chalumeaux! No bottle date of any kind on this bottle either. I was expecting Mosaic hops. This is not Mosaic hop variety, disappointment. Aroma is again sweet grain, light fruits. Maybe a pineapple note. Something is up with this grain bill. Very thin across the palate and ends overly sweet. Also grainy texture. No, no. This started bad right from the get go and didn’t improve as I drank.
