McDermottDrink Profile

Taster flight. Light yellow haze. Still shows a thin ring of white foam. Has more of the hoppy catbox smell. And a bit of lemon as well. Hops in the taste are slightly mellowed vs. the Craft Roots I had in the flight before. Comes out with a bit of cream ale character.

Strong Roots from CraftRoots Brewing

6.4/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 7 Overall 6.5

I had 2 NEIPAs in my taster flight, and this had the darker brassy body. Catbox smell from the hop blend, then some orange zest is detected. Taste comes in sharp instead of fruity. Hops dominate the whole way through, and that big hop taste stays through the end.

Taster flight at Stone Path Malt. Slight gold haze, a stubborn white head. Clean, crisp malty beer nose. Nice "Special Export" taste. Nice as a very fresh beer, with a happy tang of German hops.

Glorious Goney from Moby Dick Brewing Company

7.5/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8 Flavor 7.5 Texture 7 Overall 7.5

Taster at Moby Dick. More deep black than brown. Last glass in this flight, and it's still holding a thin layer of tan foam. Smell of roast malt, and I'm thinking of molasses, since I'm still thinking of the previous Colonial ale. Taste has big chocolate and campfire roast malt. Flavor is actually a bit overpowering, but that can be expected at this style.

8/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8 Flavor 8.5 Texture 9 Overall 7.5

Taster at the brewpub. Dark brown color, deeper than your usual brown ale. The third taster in my flight, but it still has a thin tan head hanging around. Nose is somewhat subdued, but definitely shows molasses. Taste is thicker and more whiskey-y than its abv suggests, thanks, perhaps to the corn. Great molasses center.
