(CASCO BAY) CARRABASSETT SUMMER ALE
SPANISH PEAKS SUMMER WHITE ALE
Fruitful herb-spiced ’07 seasonal (contract brewed by Wild Goose) is well balanced moderate-bodied Belgian-styled witbier with peppery coriander spicing inundating bright orange peel expectancy to thin biscuit-y wheat spine. Refreshing eucalyptus-spearmint perk uplifts lemony bruised orange midst, effervescent tangerine-pineapple tang, and slim candied tartness of commendable knockoff.
CRICKET HILL JERSEY SUMMER BREAKFAST ALE
Strangely herbaceous floral-spiced citric nature and raw oat dryness give bright saffron-hazed wheat ale similar resilience as earthen Belgian Farmhouse Ales. So does mildewed fungi retrenchment, tertiary lemongrass-peppercorn influence, mild grapefruit bittering, and wispy banana-clove snip. Biscuit-y bottom anchors finishing lemon, lime, and orange candy tartness.
