Hazed & Infused - Boulder Beer / Wilderness Pub

3.58/5  rDev -3.5%
look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4

Presentation: 12oz brown bottle. No freshness date.

Appearance: Pours a hazy copper with orange hues and a slightly tan spotty head that settles to a slightly sticky lace of varying bubble sizes.

Smell: Pleasant floral citric fruit aroma, apple skins. Resin background.

Taste: Smooth and even on the palate. Sharp-ish smack of citric apple with salty notes and a subdued lemony sting. Slight resiny feel and stick. Palate is left with a thin oily feel, breaking with a leaf and apple skin roughness (probably from the dry-hopping) as things dry up towards the end. Soft soap-like wash over it all. Some biscuity malt character, touch of sweetness, and a bready finish with a mouthful of grain.

Notes: The hops really dominate this brew, with barely enough malt character to keep things in control. Pretty average, but worth a try.

look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3 | feel: 3 | overall: 3

Presentation: 12 oz brown bottle with no freshness date. Lame tie-die hippy colors on the label.

Appearance: Lightly hazed orangey copper hue, great looking head obviously from the use of a lot of hops.

Smell: Citrusy orange and citric peel hop aroma, hints of pine and tobacco as well.

Taste & Mouth Feel: Hop flavor is all of the place with Chinook in the foreground, a think biting bitterness with a hard hammer of flavor. The malt does not even have a chance to come through. Ample crispness from the carbonation and a faint toasted graininess in the finish after the wave of hops starts to clear.

Drinkability & Notes: This pretty much ends up to be a quick fix for the hop addict, for a pale ale is it way out of balance. Bring up the maltiness a tad and it would be a great pale ale.

Poured into becker. Very slightly cloudy orange, with a thick white head that sticks around pretty well, leaving very nice lacing. Smell is subdued hops. Taste is very clear and smooth up front, fading into crackery malts with just a touch of hops. A very drinkable pale ale in my opinion; mouthfeel is slick and a little fuller than I'd expect (probably because it's unfiltered).

Got a bottle of this after reading the label expecting a hop nirvana. Sorry, folks. Didn't happen for me. Wasn't there for my palate. Looked great when poured into a tumbler. ( I like to drink hoppy beers in a tumbler, so I get the hop effect full in the face). Color was good, head was really nice, mouthfeel was good, but it didn't tickle my tongue the way I was expecting. No numbness or bitterness on the back of my throat. Tasted like it was watered down. Not sorry I tried it but I was expecting more from the hops. Good price though.

On tap at jamian's in red bank.

Arrives in a pint glass with a half inch of frothy foam. Cloudy dark amber color. Aroma is mostly a nice citrus hoppiness. First sip is a smooth malty full bodied sweetness with a hint of hop flavor. Well balanced and very easy to put back.

A nice warm weather beer. Pleasant and flavorful.

Serving type: on-tap
