Albert. Able. Gordo. Miss Baker. Bonny. Goliath. Between 1948 and 1961 these primate pioneers and others bravely went where no man had ever gone before, paving the way for manned U.S. spaceflight. This hoppy little monkey of a beer is a tribute to those Simian heroes of yesteryear. It has a citrusy, floral hop aroma, a strong malt body, and a crisp finish.

Can at the Battle of Bull, Cheras, Malaysia. Poured a hazy medium amber with a frothy white head and some broken lace The aroma is sticky toffee caramel malt, light tropical fruit, woody hop. The flavour is moderate sweet light bitter with a crisp, fresh, fruity, malt, warm alcohol, dry woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

How on earth did a keg of this end up in Scotland? Alabama barely ever makes it to Florida but alas it did and I grabbed a can. Orange pour. Nose is sugary malt and some pine. Tastes of caramel, orange, malt, pine. Bitter and fruity. Straightforward

Gorgeous pour, coming out the can a rich orange-gold with a massive white top and layers upon layers of lace. Not so great of an aroma, mostly offering up caramel with hints of pine and citrus. Tastes pretty average for an IPA, skewing slightly English in its malt-centric sweetness, caramel and candy apple and tea backed by modest orange-citrus notes and a piney, floral finish. Good texture, creamy but bright. Pretty skippable overall, though.

Draft at the source. Copper color with a white head. Fine-grained lacing. Aroma is citrus and malt with faint pine and floral elements. Taste has a little more pine and bitterness than the aroma indicates, but it also has a nice malty base. Good.
