Allentown Brew Works
Grade: B
Overall: The flavor is light compared to what you would expect, although it is sweeter and less dry than most. The fruit and yeast flavors are there, but could be more pronounced. This would be a good beer to drink on a sunny 80 degree day.
Grade: B
Appearance: Pours a pale orange with a very strong head that sticks around for a while then reduces to a dense 1/2 finger head that leaves good lacing.
Smell: Smell is yeast dominant with fruity apple, lemon and citrus notes. Some banana peel and melon are picked up as well. Although the smell is light, it is nice.
Taste: It begins with a dry sparkling apple cider, then transitions to nice a wheat and citus flavor. Tastes of orange, apple and peach take over the finish. Pretty good.
Moutfeel: A good sparkling carbonation comes first, then it mellows down to a slightly carbonated light body with a flowery acidic bite at the swallow.
Drinkability: Saisons, like most Belgian beers, aren't normally my first choice when I want to kick back and drink some beers, and this one is no different. Saisons are a great style but a one and done style for me.
