Can, undated, from the shelf, drunk 7/15/24. Almost spurts upon opening, despite a long, cool rest. Doesn't smell infected, so it must have been underattenuated and refermenting on the shelf. Massive head, white. Clear, beeswax yellow-brass body. Smells like a Kolsch, at least. Definite identifiable Kolsch yeast, though with heavy honey and angel food cake alongside it. Clean. Not too sweet, as it's heavily refermented in the can. There's a very strong phenolic character and an almost wine-like flavor, as well. The sugars certainly are all gone. Kolsch yeast comes through. But yeah, rough around the edges, to say the least.

Can from my brother: pours greyish yellow haze with a white head. Aroma is lacto funk and hints of citrus. Simple kettle sour. Lightly sour. Light.

Can from my brother: pours gold with a white head. Aroma is grainy, herbal, slight fruitiness. Taste is herbal and raw tasting. Could have been way more refined.

Can from Roots The Restaurant: pours dark amber with beige head. Aroma is caramel, toast, not very much maple. Taste is toasty, sweet, lightly bitter. Robust. Not bad.

16oz can pours a pulpy gold with lots and lots of frothy white head. Nose is nice, big on flowers, honey, orange blossom, potpourri, deodorant. Flavor is pulpy, more citrus finally, flowers, orange blossom, some melon finally, clear oaty texture. Finishes pillowy. Unique.

On tap at the public house neat Queechee Gorge. Lightly hazy light gold in color with a decent bubbly off white head that slowly dissipates. Juicy fruity citrus and light earthy grass against a sweet bready maltiness. Pretty Nice beer.

Tap, at the brewery. Pink pour. Foamy head. Drinks like a fruited pale. Light sourness. Creamy vanilla. By this point things were blurry. Couldn’t be bothered making notes, hence the shit review. Sorry.

Tap, at the brewery. 9.5%. Murky purple. Off white head. Yeah, smells as you’d expect. Cinnamon. All spice. Berry. A Bakewell Tart thing going on. Drinks incredibly easy for the ABV. Nicely done. Bent Hill are significantly better than 3 years ago.

Tap, at the brewery. Deep red. Nicely balanced amber ale. Fruity malt and touch of maple work well with lightly spiced hops. Not normally my bag, but I enjoyed this one.

Tap, at the brewery. Hazed gold. Fine white head. Tropical fruit and a little pine on the nose. Light chew on the palate. Easy drinking. One of the better Bent Hill pales I’ve had.
