Barons Pale Ale
Poured into a tumbler from a 12 oz. (330 ml) bottle. Freshness date is September 2009. The pour is a clear golden with about a half inch of creamy off-white head. The head is gone within a minute, and there is some lacing. The nose is fruity and citrusy (especially grapefruit) with a bit of floral and some breadiness. During the sip, the breadiness takes over with the other flavours going to the background. A very mild bitterness is present throughout the sip. Mouthfeel is on the thin side with a large amount of carbonation. Drinkability is decent, but the breadiness might be too powerful by the second one. Overall, it's not a bad beer, but it's overpriced even if it did come to Starkville, Mississippi, from Australia. I'll pass next time.
