Description
Our mission has been to produce vibrant, quality and innovative beer with a truly authentic team of humans since 2015. Structures Brewing was founded by James Alexander after spending years working at breweries in Washington, Pennsylvania, and Vermont.

In 2021, forces were joined when Bryan Cardwell partnered with James. Bryan comes from a background of world class brewing experience in Washington and Oregon. Together they have meshed their skills of brewing great hoppy beer and lager beer... while also loving to explore the realms of curiosity in Imperial Stouts, Barleywines and Smoothie Sours.

16 oz can poured. I know I've had this a couple times over the years, but never in a setting where I can kick back and scribble some notes. Bright orange juice haze. Loose cream foam head. Juicy, peachy hop character here, thick cream body, smooth taste, with just a slight citrus, grapefruit like zest bite. Bitterness shows up late on the palate. Peak refreshment and flavor in this session hazy. Very good.

On tap at The Beer Junction, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out doughy malt, piney hops and some dankness. Flavour is smooth and easy, with dank hops, light resinous hop oils, and biscuity malt. Good stuff.

Can. Crazy, there is almost no information on this. Not even the brewery. I did find it eventually on UT. Pours a slightly cloudy orange hue with a large white head. A light sweet toast and citrus nose. Sweet citrus, light bitterness, toast, caramel. Solid.

10oz shared with Phill and Matt after Zwanze 2022. Appearance: murky golden with a white head. Aroma: weird, like peppers, some vegetables, a bit of tropical fruits. Taste: juicy, a bit dusty, more on the tropical fruits side than aroma, some hop burn. Overall: ok.

8oz shared with Phill and Matt after Zwanze 2022. Appearance: like a pineapple and tangerine smoothie. Aroma: lots of pineapple and coconut, some citruses. Taste: very thick, along the same lines, finishes with mix of pineapple and coconut. Overall: very pleasant, but of course it's not really a beer.

10oz shared with Phill and Matt after Zwanze 2022. Appearance: clear golden with a white head. Aroma: lots of hops and crackery malts, very typical for lagers. Taste: along the same lines, very crispy, malty, finishes with hoppy bitterness. Overall: good for the style.

10oz shared with Phill and Matt after Zwanze 2022. Appearance: murky golden with a white head. Aroma: lots of fresh hops, some weedy character. Taste: along the same lines, very bitter, lots of hop burn. Overall: too bitter for me and a bit too much of the hop burn, nah.

On tap at Structures, pours an opaque muddled yellow with a small white head. Aroma is full of hopburn and chalk, with yeast soup, dirty pith, and muddled hopburn. Flavour is full of intolerable hopburn, yeast soup, and muddled chalkiness on the palate. This is exactly what I deplore about hazies: muddy, chalky, full of hopburn, and lacking any distinctiveness. Poor.
