Sweetwater Motor Boat
12 oz single purchased as part of a mixed 6 pack from Whole Foods in Duluth poured into a standard Sweetwater pint glass A: Pours a copper color with a finger thick off white head. The head dissipates quickly down to a thin covering of bubbles over the top of the liquid. It leaves a good bit of lacing as it is consumed. S: The aroma is pretty strong. Pine and citrus hops dominate the aroma. There is a nice malt aroma mixed in with the hop aroma as well. I am also picking up some sort of spicing. T: The taste starts of a bit sweet from the malt. The hops gradually make it slightly bitter in the mouth. The finish is where the piney hops really come through quite a bit. M: I can't really say I care for the mouthfeel. It is very thin and really has nothing going on except a great deal of in mouth carbonation. The problem is, it doesn't help to make the beer taste creamy just really carbonated. By far the worst part of this one for me. D: I like this one as long as you don't let it linger long in the mouth. I guess that makes it sessionable in a strange way.
