Hoppin' Mad Trout Ale from Trout River Brewing Company
Rating: C
Thanks to barleywinebrewer for shipping this my way in the Little Guy BIF. Rather fruity label.
Appearance: More golden/yellow than the orange/amber I was expecting. Smallish head, exhibiting little retention. Hazy.
Smell: Strong berry-like fruit/yeast aroma. Slight herbal hoppy note.
Taste: That same berry flavor dominates. Bitterness shows up in the finish, but that's the only hint that this is a pale ale. Hop character is all very subdued. Unimpressive, on the whole.
Mouthfeel: Light mouthfeel, good carbonation.
Drinkability: Low. A bit disappointed in this one.
Serving type: bottle
