Description
Wachusett Brewing Company was founded by three Massachusetts college students obsessed with the brewing culture and an appreciation for craft beer during their adventures of biking, canoeing, and hiking around New England. Armed with a “we can do this” attitude, the three cast off from their careers in engineering and biology to pursue their passion to make great beer.

Grabbed cheap six pack just to have around while doing household items. I knew it was going to be great but it fit what I was looking for. Drank other 5 earlier this week straight from cans here and there. Light clearish gold and a soapy head that dissipates quickly. Nose is faint citrus and wheat. Tastes of some wheat, some lemon, grains and fruit punch on finis. Thin bodied.

Immediate aroma of orange juice, amber malt. Taste has continued elements of the amber malt, some herbal resin, lingering orange. Palate has some more blood orange juice, weak lemongrass. Unique in the malt that was selected. Interesting.

Clear golden color with thin head and blueberry aroma. Flavor is a mild ale, slightly sweet malt, with just enough blueberry to be noticeable without overpowering
