Description
Two Roads Brewing Company was founded in 2012 by four friends who dreamed for years of starting a craft brewery. We foster a “road less traveled” philosophy in the beers we make and how we make them. In that spirit, Phil Markowski, our award-winning Brewmaster and 27 year craft beer veteran has created an extensive lineup that takes a unique twist on classic beer styles. Two Roads was named one of the ten best breweries in America by Paste Magazine and has won many awards including gold for Belgian Lambic style Ale in 2016 at the Great American Beer Festival.
Two Roads isn’t just the logo on our brewery building, it’s our philosophy. Life always seems to offer up two ways to go. It just so happens, we prefer the one less taken and having some fun along the way – in our lives, our careers and especially for our beers! Now our “road less traveled” philosophy is being brought to life in the beers that we create and how we create them.

Cloudy, orange to yellow colored, medium creamy white head, nice lacing. Aroma is witty, bit of spice and orange peel, citrusy hops and some acidity. Taste is low+ sweet wheat, fruity caramel, some citrus and tropical fruits, peaches especially, low+ bitterness and finish. Light to medium bodied, average carbonation. (on tap, Delirium Pub, Brussels, B)

The Sampler, Brooklyn tap: pours dark copper with a white head. Aroma is pumpkin spice, some kind of sour ale like smell, and nice malty smell. Taste is slightly sour. Kind of malty. Pumpkin spice is quite prevalent. Pretty good. Interesting.

Bottom of the can stamped 07/22/15.
Because of \"rum barrel\" this was poured into a snifter.
The appearance was a nice looking dark hazy brown color with a slim little cap of a head that dissipated eloquently.
The smell started off with some fresh pumpkin blending into a subtle sweet woody/vanilla blend.
The taste was moderately sweet carrying the subtle pumpkin spice to follow up. Vanilla woodiness comes back to balance. Dry woody vanilla stickiness in the aftertaste leading into a dry sweet finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a good sipping quality about it. Carbonation runs fairly smooth allowing vanilla to \"crisp\" things up to create a subtle \"pie-like\" structure sticking to my tongue.
Overall, this was a really nice pumpkin ale gracefully blending rum barrel into this goodness. What a wonderful Autumn sipper!

Keg sample at beer temple Amsterdam. Translucent golden yellow coloured pour with a lasting frothy white head. Aroma is leafy lemon, wheat, fresh and clean, floral notes, little pollen. Flavour is composed of wheat, leafy hops, lemon rind, crisp. Palate is crisp fresh grains, light resin, highish carbonation. Hint of spicy citrus rind in the finish. Very well balanced. .

Draught at Sweet Cheeks BBQ, 9/18/15.
Small, foamy white head shows moderate to moderately-high retention. Clear golden liquid shows ample carbonation.
Peach, mango, lemon in the nose is quite enjoyable and a nice break from the endless permutations of citrus/pine hopped-ipas. Malt shows just a touch of cracker-like dryness/breadiness and no alcohol or flaws are noted.
Quite dry in the mouth, though not problematically so, and as the hops aren’t aggressively acidic, it’s quite appropriate. There is a bit of dullness/blandness from yeast or hop particulate (or it very well could be some influence from the toasted malt), cutting in to the otherwise bright, lively hop profile, but other than that, it’s a very mindlessly drinkable, enjoyable lil’ beer.
