Samuel Smith's Organically Produced Ale
Pours a solid copper color with a good looking white head and a nice bit of lacing as the beer drained. Nose is nice. Lots of caramel malt, some light fruitiness, maybe citrus hops in there as well. Definitely sweet and quite nice. Unfortunately the flavor drops the ball. Basically, some mild malt, which is seriously overpowered by the fizziness of the beer. Mouthfeel's a little biting for me liking. Too fizzy, and not really full enough. I dunno, nothing really against this one, it just sort of bored me. I've actually been disappointed by Sam Smith before, and this one is unfortunately no exception. I know English pale ales aren't usually flavor explosions, but this one just couldn't hold my interest.
