Description
Somewhere out in Colorado, in the year nineteen hundred and ninety-five, two guys named Dave and Bill learned that while they loved gulping down good beer, they weren’t yet old enough to buy it. They figured an answer to their quandary would appear if they drank enough and listened to enough thinking music, also known as Ska. On the second Skaturday of Skatember it hit them. If they brewed their own beer they’d have all the beer they could ever want. And while they were at it, why not brew the most magnificent suds ever quaffed in their neck of the woods…or any other neck for that matter.

[12oz can from Lowcostbeer.] A cloudy amber pour with a ring of white head; aroma of pine resin, orange and caramel; sweet chewy malt body with a woody bitterness and some bitter orange marmalade; then a drier finish and a pleasing warmth in the belly.

355 ml can, as SKA The Pinstripe Red Ale, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.2%. Nearly clear reddish amber colour, moderate to small off-white head. Aroma of caramel, malts, brown bread, dark berries and dark dried fruits. The flavour is not as sweet as the aroma made me fear, but has a decent malty character, with moderate notes of the same elements as the aroma. Moderate herbal and earthy hops in the finish. Easy drinking, well balanced and enjoyable.
