A- Lots of white head, a little cloudy
S- A hint of pine, not too potent, sweet.
T- less Belgian yeast than others, crisp, a tad spiced, hoppier than a typical Belgian golden.
M- Very light, possibly due to massive carbonation, dry
O- Spot on for a Belgian golden, delicious, one of the few Belgian's I have liked.

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5

Appearance: 1 inch head, hazy, light yellow in color, moderate carbonation

Smell: funk, grass, and big grapefruit

Taste: grapefruit mixed with some Belgian spices and light grass

Mouthfeel: bitter start that gets slightly more bitter as throughout, light bodied with medium carbonation

Overall: Grapefruit juice is the star of this BSPA. If you like that flavor, you should love Mischief. While I like it, I am not in love with it, so I am good with just one glass.

Serving type: on-tap

750 ml bottle, with no apparent bottled on date present. My first beer from The Bruery, going in as unbiased as possible. For lack of a tulip or a snifter, I'm pouring this into my Firestone Walker pint glass.

A - Semi-aggressive pour yields about four fingers of towering frothy white foamy head with excellent retention. The head hangs out pretty much the entire time. Leaves giant white sheets of lacing on the glass. Cloudy, murky, lemon colored body.

S - Smell is of fruity Belgian yeast and malts. Pineapple, lemon, light hops, some earthiness and some grassy qualities. Slightly underwhelming aroma, I had higher expectations.

T - Taste is sweet, fruity, and tart. Some earthy grassy hops, slight bit of funky yeast, and bready biscuit malts. Juicy tart pineapples comes through the strongest for me.

M - Feel ends dry, with a hint of tartness hanging on. Body is crisp and light.

Overall, it is a smooth, clean, and palatable beer, but just doesn't bring very much action to the table in my opinion. I'm enjoying the fruitiness and the hops, and while I'm not a big fan of Belgian style beers to begin with, this beer is highly drinkable. Not a beer I will try again, but I'm glad to have tried it.

The Bruery Mischief ---4/5.
