Description
Established in 1994 in South Deerfield, MA, Berkshire Brewing Company is New England’s premier regional craft brewery. We keep it simple: brewing our ales and lagers fresh in small batches. We keep it real: all of our beers are unfiltered, unpasteurized, and contain no chemical additives or preservatives. And we keep it creative: producing a broad range of year-round and seasonal ales and lagers, and frequent brewer’s specials.
We believe in staying relaxed, down-to-earth, and enjoying an abundance of great beer. There are no secrets here. We share our process, our culture, and of course, the final product – because that’s the way we believe a craft brewery should be.

Pours hazy dark amber with a thick white head. Aroma of bread and yeast hinted with hop elements. Taste has sweet malt elements, a subtle element of molasses with citrusy hops. Palate has bread and nutty nose hints that are hard to miss. Pretty interesting.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Julio's Liquors. Appearance is clear dark brown (with ruby red with light source directly behind), decent sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width khaki head with poor retention and fair leggy lacing. Aroma is roasted malt, whiff of vanilla. Taste is roasted malt, mild anise, tart fruit, mild earthy bitterness. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with somewhat watery texture, average-to-lively carbonation (a bit stinging on the tongue) that dominates the palate, and mostly sweet malt finish with late earthy bitter. Overall, taste is more interesting than the aroma and appearance is nice. Palate is dominated by too much carbonation. OK.

Thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Looks really good in the glass. Roasty malty aroma. Starts strong, malty, roasty, not too intense. Some woody-earthy notes. Finish milder, less roasty, soft-malty. Mild sweetness. Nice!
