Toppling Goliath X Hops Maroon Pale Ale. Toppling Goliath Brewery, Decorah, Iowa. 5.3% ABV.Hazy, bright golden coloring, lighter and more transparent at the bottom, with a large, looming ivory head.
In the nose: Ah! Beautiful citrus and pine, plenty of grapefruit, orange, lemon/lime. Just right.
In the mouth: Juicy, fruity, bitter. Just enough bitter to keep tabs on the pithy citrus fruit. Lean bodied, sweet malt, just enough balance to let the hops shine through. Just enough biscuity, cracker-y malt, with an abundance of blisteringly bitter, bright and juicy citrus flavors flowing. Tasty and satisfying, this.
