Wisdom Amber Ale
EDIT: I'm contacting the brewery to see if they had a bad batch or something. There's no way any brewery would sell what I sampled and stay in business as long as they have. Disappointing. That is the best word to sum up this beer. Pours a reddish brown color that resembles a dark apple cider. No head, or even foam to be seen. No lacing on the glass whatsoever. Upon further inspection without tasting or smelling, this may indeed be cider. Smell. Not cider. Smells like a protein bar, cheap cocoa. For some reason the other bottles in the sample pack all smell like this one. Guessing they used the same yeast between them??? Taste's awful. To be a little more descriptive there is a really bad taste that drowns out what ever flavor the beer actually has. Maybe the brewing equipment wasn't sanitized and it brewed with a small amount of bacteria? Judging by the other reviews it seems that this is the taste the brewery was aiming for. The taste is that of pure bitterness, reminding me of a protein bar. Very sour, bitter, hint of cocoa and caramel, though that doesn't really matter. It's a lighter weight beer, seems as if water was added, a lot of water. Drinkability... Well the feel of the beer is that where you could easily down a 12 pack in a very short time, except that the taste makes you gag so the only place this is going down quickly is on the ground. Will not buy from this brewery again. Very disappointed.
