Tower 42 Tasting. Another can from Dan the man. Clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has good fine carbonation. Smooth light pale malts, mildly sweet. Good sweetish piney hops getting slightly minty. Good tropical fruits with a touch of lime. A light and sweetish IPA. Nice.

Pour is a clear almost pale lager yellow with a large white head. Aroma is a decent floral hop with green onion in there. Flavor is again a floral hop with kind of a earthy English malt. No an overpowering hop bomb but this was a decent beer. Kina of a English/American combo IPA.

Sample from a bottle. Pours a light gold color, with a small, off-white head. The nose is buttery, thick hops, with notes of pine sap, resin, biscuit dough, and lemon zest. The flavor is lightly dry and nicely bitter. Light to medium body, crisp, a little effervescent, and clean. This is a solidly done IPA, but the aroma is a little weak.

Bottle thanks to Dirty D. It pours clear gold with a thick white head. The nose is fresh, bitter - sweet, juicy, sticky orange, tangerine, tinned peach, dull grain and straw. The taste is crisp, bitter, grassy, straw, minerals, chalky, orange peel and waxy peel with a dry, grainy finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. So - so.

Can sample at a tasting at troubles’s place. Thanks Tom L. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma of rather stale hops, grainy notes. Sweetish flavor with malt, kinda oxidized, and bitter stale hops. Medium-bodied. Not fresh.

This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a solid hazy burnt orange color with a super light transparency could be seen by seeing some light carbonation rise. The head dissipated within less than a minute and there was some light lacing here and there.
The smell had slight earthy to semi-spicy hoppiness rolling into a light caramel malt. There’s a light citrusy effect balancing in there as it warms.
The taste was moderately spicy with a delicate sweetness through the caramel malt. There’s a slight quick spicy finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it. Carbonation ran fairly decent for the style and for me. Earthy to spiciness from the hops does end up hitting my tongue nicely.
Overall, definitely one of the better beers by this company, maybe not one to drink all of the time or seek out, but definitely do-able enough again.

Can thanks to Ben! Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a combination of grass, sweet grain and a bit of earthy resin underlying. Flavor has a musty pine with earthy grass and earthy grain underlying.
