Streetlight New Grassic : Appearance
Dark muddy orange colour with a thin white head on top that fades to a few bubbles around the edge of the glass. Some lacing left but a meagre amount.
Streetlight New Grassic : Aroma
Peculiar – I mean a grassy hoppy aroma is one that I don’t particularly enjoy as it means that the hops have usually had too much contact time with the beer. Combined with a light citrus aroma, the beer has a weird aroma to it that I could not decide if I enjoyed or not.
Streetlight New Grassic : Taste
Smooth, well rounded bitterness throughout drinking, but seems a bit fresh to be drinking. Grassy flavour is more pronounced as the beer warms up, though the citrus notes cut through it to make some sense of change in the beer. A medium level of sweetness pervades throughout drinking, leaving a sticky residue on the palate.
Streetlight New Grassic : The Bottom Line
It’s a weird one – it’s been designed to be grassy but that doesn’t mean I have to enjoy it.
