McLaren Vale Ale, 4.5% Alcohol – South Australia
May 19, 2009 – 11:50 pmEver since i got this beer, i have been busting to taste it, unfortunately though it had to wait a couple of weeks. Still as they say good things come to those who wait and this beer didn’t disappoint.
Once in a glass this brew presented itself as lightly carbonated, bright gold in colour, with a loosely packed head which quickly died down to a scant covering over the liquid.
The aroma exhibits citrus notes and really gives away the presence of cascade hops. The taste of this beer is extra clean, slightly sweet with citrus, floral notes and an almost non-existent aftertaste.
Verdict: This beer was made for a hot summers day, ultra smooth you could drink these all day with out growing tired of the taste.
Rating: 7.2 / 10
