Description
SweetWater brewery has been makin’ tasty brews in the heart of the south since 1997. What started as a pipe dream of two college buddies has turned into a dream job full of great adventures and lip-smackin’ beers. What would you expect from a couple of boys with more of a hankering for beers than for books.

Courtesy of Quake1028. Pours clear gold with thin bright white head. The aroma has big blueberry notes along with grainy wheat cereal and some faint soap. The taste starts fruity with blueberries but then becomes more like sugary berry extract syrup. There is also a mild berry tartness that moves toward a grainy wheat note. It becomes a little too sweet in the end. Might have a better reception on a hot summer day.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet hoppy combined with notes of grapefruit, while the flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of hops, alcohol, and grapefruit. The alcohol carries all the way to the finish.

Huge bottle, unsure about size. From friends who brought this back from Georgia. Overall this beer was fantastic. It wasn’t as barely wine like as I expected, but that might have been better for me than it otherwise could have been. Alcohol is extremely masked in this beverage, and with an extremely smooth beverage, it’s hard to not drink it faster than you should.

Bottle from my friends from Georgia. Pretty decent APA, but frankly I found this a bit too grassy for my tastes (I suppose that’s the whole gimmick though). Very crisp and had a good citrus and floral hop flavor to it as well.

Bottle thanks to my roommates bringing some for me from Georgia. Smells like a standard Belgian White, but the flavor is very good. Citrus flavor is a little subtle from what I’m used to, but it’s decent enough that I could let it pass.

On draft at ATL airport. The darn IPA was empty. So this is what I had. They poured it into a big ‘ole tumbler glass. It looks clear copper with gold edges and off white head. The aroma is light with malty sweetness and what seems like a combination of citrus and floral hops. The taste comes off as crisp and fresh with mild malt sweetness that’s broken apart by floral hop bitterness and hints of citrus grapefruit hops.

Good and better than most of the style. Good hop aroma with citrus, plants, and salt. Medium sweet malt balanced by generous citrus-herbal hops. Dry, bitter finish.

Bottle from goldtwins - thanks! Pours a soft yellow with a modest white head and light lacing. Nose is mild of hops and maltiness. Taste is more hoppy (citrus) than expected for this style. A little grassey and malty, but a nice session ale nonethless.

Glad they changed the label on this one - that old one is...wow...holy shit...what can you say about that? Black body with a sparse dark brown head. Big roasty aroma with some chocolate and stinging alcohol. Fairly simple, burnt roast, peanut shells with a bit of alcohol and chocolate. Kind of watery as impies go. Bland, uninteresting, this ticks off a couple of the style’s requisite flavours but that’s all it does.
