Bullfrog Brewery is a proudly independent and multiple award-winning craft microbrewery, brewpub, and eatery nestled comfortably in the vibrant heart of downtown Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Born of fortuitous circumstance and ambitious aspiration, we opened in August of 1996 with a committed 'focal on local' philosophy and a simple yet lofty goal ... to be the place that people need to spend time, to brew beers that people need to have in their life, to offer food that people need to eat, to offer live music that people need to hear, and to be the place that our beloved staff need to work. Bullfrog beers are renowned far and wide, especially our artfully-crafted, barrel-aged wild ales such as Le Roar Grrrz and Rood Bruin. Here at "The Frog," we celebrate life by creating outstanding and memorable beers, food, friendships, and moments.
Tap bowsers. Light orange in color. Somewhat vinegar aroma. Very good cutting feel on this one. Not overly sweet like so many of its domestic brethren. Not your typical fru fru fruity sweet cider pop. The fermentation has gone pertty far on this one. Almost comes across a little farmy and a little like mild real lambic. Some apple peel on the finish.
Now this was really good, one of the better beers I’ve had in a while, it was so good from start to finish and I was pissed that it was finished. Quite a positive tart beer experience, nifty taste. Big and dark this was. Nice head to boot. Rather mild tart and first but then it gets a little more tart as the session continues. So nice, great taste. Fun, civilized tart beer experience. I really liked this. Would like to have a case of this in bottles.
[1/30/16] Bottle sample at the Encomium bottle share, after RateBeer Best awards ceremony at Hyatt Vineyard Creek Hotel in Santa Rosa. Thanks everyone who shared bottles! Cloudy golden. Tart, funky, cherry, oak. Great.
Bottle shared at Struise shop Brugge. Cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma has a light barnyard funk, basement, soapy notes and tart citrus fruits. Flavour is light sweet and over moderate sour. Light medium bodied with soft carbonation.
Stronger IPA smell of sweeeeeeeet BO! Yummy. Bright lemony coloring on this one. Peppery initial flavor and I swear this has a tad of heat in there. Slight co2 fer sure. Yes, the coffee comes across like peppery heat, amazing. A little better than a typical IPA fer sure. Odd that heat comes from the coffee, must be some mole or cayenne in there baby.
Bottle @ RBWG. Murky peach orange appearance with a white head. Light vinegar, rich oak, vanilla, cherry, and cheese. Fairly tart. Juicy, fine cherries, log barnyard, and funk. Good.
Sampled on draft at Hou Thou this beer poured an orange-nut brown color with a small foamy beige head that left decent lacing. The aroma was tart and sour with a bit of hot pepper. The flavor was tart and sour with hot pepper, vague fruits and a hint of coffee. Long finish. medium body but a touch flat. Odd but interesting.
Bottle - Funky petroleum and nice grape notes. Cloudy gold with a small white head. Bitter grapefruit and some bitter notes. I wished it was astrodome as the nose.
750mL bottle, sent from Beerman6686 (thanks man!), pours a clear golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out white vinegar, some light funk, and a touch of acid -- very inauthentic. Flavour is much more convincing, with barnyard funk, white vinegar, and some light acidic notes. Not quite like an authentic gueuze, but it's quite complex and not like a typical American sour. Really great attempt.
