Tallgrass Ale
More presents! Love the sample man, this time bringing me sample cans, from Tallgrass of Kansas. I've had it before, so here are the notes, from October of 2010:
"Tallgrass Ale, Defiantly Dark, Seductively Smooth, so they say...
Hazy, light brown coloring, with crimson edges, big beige head, thick and lasting, creamy and attractive.
Soft, creamy, cola-tinged nose, with plenty of hops. Sweet, malty, pleasant.
Taste: Mmm, very smooth, dark malts, light to medium bodied, and here come the hops, crisp and delicious. Ease of drinkability high in this. Not a ton of flavor, but that's not the idea, it's all about just enough, just right. just enough hops. certainly sessional.
thumbs up for this one, a sturdy dark drinkable ale for the thirsty throats of Kansasites."
