Now my third (of four) American Trappist ale from Spencer Brewery. This time around is…
…which I could tell as the aromas from this pilsner reached my nose that it was going to be steps above just good. Big Germanic Noble hops and grain mix flooded in. Super crisp. Big wet mouthfeel to it. Contrary but it works Mineral notes take over from there with no sweetness at all.
Onto my second ever American Trappist ale from Spencer Brewery. This time the very modern 16oz canned IPA.
Orange and slightly hazy in appearance. I am getting a lot of pine notes from this IPA. Good hop to malt balance. A bit of a wine grape flavor here too. The bitterness lingers on the tongue. A tiny bit of lemon notes as well. Part of this flavor profile might be due to the fact that it was an October canned beer.
