Oliphant Snail Pale Pale Ale.
5% ABV, Oliphant Brewing, Somerset, Wisconsin.
Collaboration with Sea Salt Eatery, Minnehaha Falls on the shell limns the connection.
Clear, bright golden / orange hue, fine white froth rests atop.
In the nose: bright citrus zest, bold orange and grapefruit. Perfect.
In the mouth: bitterness greets the palate, kisses the lips and coats the tongue. Fiercely hoppy, fresh and expertly drinkable. Medium to light bodied. Long, bittersweet finish. Infinitely enjoyable.
I’ll tell you this, people: I don’t know how pale ales fell out of favor, but it’s got to stop. There ain’t nothing like a good one, and this one is that.
In Collaboration with those saltwater sweeties over at Sea Salt Eatery in MPLS, this pale ale drinks like it would've over a decade ago. A little malty, a little bitter and hoppy; most of all, delish! Snail on chums!
