New image, 12/09/17, showing new packaging, new glass- ware, better camera, etcetera....but it's the same beer, so no need for a new review. |
Purchased at Casanova's, Hudson, WI. 4.8% ABV, 20 IBU.
Had in the company of the most recent episode of Brew Masters. (Leather and Lemons?)
(Actually, it's "Grain to Glass", I just like it when Sam used that phrase.)
"Namaste, the word kinds sorta means the spirit in me recognizes and celebrates the spirit in you. Namaste the beer kinda sorta means white ale as in wheat and coriander but also means dried orange slices and lemongrass. A refreshing summer thing. Namaste."
Glug, glug, glug goes the beer out of the bottle and into the glass.
Light apricot, pale peach appearance, bountiful head on it, billowy snow drift holding fast atop, bubbly, lace leaving. Mostly clear, with small particles at the bottom, some twisting around throughout the glass. Is this typical of this one, or do I have an older bottle?
Aroma: ah! Zesty, airy, uplifting, sweet, and slightly tart, with the coriander very vivid, and the orange just a little behind. Lemongrass, I don't have a handle on, though I've had my share of Town Hall's various lemongrass brews. I lean into the glass further and plunge my nose straight in …lightly fruity and spicy, and very pretty.
Taste: soft on the palate, with a distinct grassiness. Light bodied, with a constant delivery of light fruit and spice. Slides down and back with minimal effort.
Soft, breezy, and beautiful. Mmmmm. Nice. Namaste.
