Really Pale Ale from Frost Beer Works
11 years ago
7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Location: 22 oz bottle from Winooski Beverage, 7/24/15, Batch 019: 07/01/2015

Aroma: The nose is citrus hops, with some Belgian White like spice and yeast components
Appearance: It pours a yellow color, white hue, frothy and foamy white head, lots of lacing
Flavor: The flavor is more spice/yeast forward than the aroma with citrus hop bitterness
Palate: It has a light-medium body, lively-to-fizzy carbonation, and a spicy, dry close
Overall Impression: Kind of tends toward the components a lot of breweries are trying for when they make a White IPA. I liked this one better than I have a lot of those. I would almost call it more of a Saison APA hybrid than a Belgian White APA. Either way, it is kind of unique and really, pretty well done.

6.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Location: 22 oz bottle from Winooski Beverage, 7/22/15, Batch 010/013, Bottled on 6/18/15

Aroma: The nose decent, lightly fruity, with some caramel as well
Appearance: The pour is unclear amber-orange with a small beige head and drippy lace
Flavor: Tastes similar, some caramel malt sweetness, with a lighter bitterness
Palate: Fairly light bodied, easy drinking, with a soft carbonation, and a light dry finish
Overall Impression: This beer is just fine. It's a nice pale ale with a lighter hop presence and a strong malt backbone. No noticeable flaws. Really, just fine. I didn't dislike anything about this, I just feel like it is a little dull.

6.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 8 Overall 5.5
This was poured into a tulip. Bottle dated 06/24/2015.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy amber to red color with a one finger white foamy head that quickly dissipated leaving some light lacing here and there.
The smell had some light sweet citrus running into some caramel malts and then some red apples.
The taste was mainly sweet with a mild bitterness in and around. There’s no aftertaste but it did have a mild citrus to caramel finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sipping to sessionable quality about it. Carbonation seemed decent and the bitterness was there but it didn’t show a whole lot of strength.
Overall, an okay DIPA, there’s other offerings from this company I’d rather have before this.

6.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Bottle purchased at Hungar Mountain Co-Op. Date on the label reads June 18, 2015. Unexpected amber red color, thin lasting head. Aroma is mostly fruit, sugar and weak pine notes.

The body is meduim with almost no bitterness for a imperial IPA. Even mild bitterness if this was an IPA under 7%. The flavor is very mild, citrus mostly and just a hint of pine toward the backend.

8.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Bottled on 06/11/2015.
This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a soft hazy glazed yellow color with a one finger white foamy head. It dissipates within less than about a minute leaving some messy lacing roaming around the glass.
The smell started off with a big citrus burst of hops rolling over a light pine and strolling into a slight floral setting.
The taste was pure bittersweet and authentic, pure citrus to pine. A light citrus to piney aftertaste accompanies and leads to the same sort of finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it. Carbonation seems good as an APA and still carries a nice bitterness to define the bitterness correctly.
Overall, this is a stellar APA, beautifully done and am looking forward to more check ins.

Another VT IPA from Frost Beer Works

8.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 9 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
This was poured into a tulip, thinking it was a DIPA. Bottling date reads: 05/22/15.
The appearance was a semi-hazy bronzed red color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipates within less than a minute. There’s a decent lacing that roams around the glass.
The smell starts off with a big burst of citrus hops amplified by a pine bitterness to balance. Extra tropical notes lead in but remain subtle.
The taste starts off sweet and leads into a slight bitter, nice and substantial. A light aftertaste of sweet to semi-bitter citrus leads into a sly dry finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it.. Carbonation feels right as an IPA to lead to a decent bitterness over my tongue.
Overall, I say this was a really good IPA that I could have again.

6.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Batch #010
Bottled on 06/02/2015
This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a hazy fairly dark red color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about a minute leaving some light messy lacing.
The smell had a semi-sweet citrus over top of some light caramel malts.
The taste was moderately sweet carrying a light bitterness from the citrus to balance decently. There’s no aftertaste but it did have a light quick sweet finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionable feel about it. Carbonation seemed good for the style and for me.
Overall, not a bad APA, nothing special and it seemed it could be construed as a cross between an Amber ale and an APA. Could have again.

Another IPA from Frost Beer Works

7.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
On tap at the Hinesburg public house.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance had a soft hazy burnt orange color with a bar pour’s kind of slim head that dissipated immediately. Lacing speckles the sides nicely.
The smell starts off with a sweet to sharp mango leading into a semi-sweet citrus rind.
The taste was fully bittersweet taking the citrus to play with a light piney substance. Mango becomes more subtle and leads into a sweet sticky citrus aftertaste and a light sweet citrus to caramel finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it. Carbonation seemed a bit under but still allowed a nice bitterness to hit my tongue.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good AIPA that I would have again.
