Really good APA. Light feel and packed with flavor. Pours a very light gold... hazy with a huge delicately bubbly white head. Good head retention and light lacing. Smell is good....citrus (lemon and orange with some hoppiness.

Taste is really good. Hoppy, bready malts, lemon and orange citrus allblended together in a very light feeling beer. Big flavors throughout.

Mouthfeel is light, crisp and very inviting.

This is a great beer..a bit pricy at $5.99 for 16.9 oz, but well worth a try.

Maine Beer Company - Peeper Ale

Look - Pours a pale yellow slightly hazy with a bubbly head. Lots of sticky lacing. Heavy carbonation, a bubbly bugger.

Smell - Aroma is a fresh smooth apricot (or some kind of citrus) and also floral hop aroma. Light, crisp wheat malts. Slight spice compliments the nose.

Taste - Fruity and crisp, a bit of sour and tart. Light and refreshing as hell. There is definitely a bit of spice or something present that adds to this.

Mouthfeel - Sour, not boozy at all. Nice hop fade that you want to sip to refresh again and again. Very drinkable.

Overall - This is a perfect Spring & Summer brew, it really works well on a nice day. I am sure it would be good on any day, but it stood out particularly in a warm, sunny environment.

Poured a cloudy yellow with soapy like bubbles and lots of lace. Grainy malts first hit me, and then a citric and clove like spice with bitter hops and a touch of sweet yeast in the aroma. Beer is light-bodied, smooth, has a nice sweetness to it that I wasn't expecting and balances a dry, grainy bread like malt with some citric flavored hops and spice. One of those simple beers that you enjoy every drink and can keep on drinking.

Pours a hazy, straw colored body beneath the pillowy, pure white head which is extremely slow to dissipate leaving a scattered sticky lacing.

Fresh floral hop aromas float from the glass, perhaps a touch of wheat and a touch of straw.

The palate is much more pronounced with hop flavors of flower petals and floral herbs. I would stop short of calling it spicy but the hops are certainly bordering on it at some points on the palate and there even seems to be a hint of lemongrass/lavender.

Medium to lighter in body wi generous carbonation and a sharper hoppy finish.

What a great, refreshing, hoppy brew with tons of character to enjoy.
