Tap takeover at the Village Tap, review from written notes.
This was one of the more forgettable beers of the evening.

Light Centennial hop in the aroma and taste, manifesting as citrus peel mostly. Clear golden orange color, ample carbonation levels, only lightly bitter. Papery malt flavors, dry finish. Overall it's pretty boring, one note with the (presumably) single hop addition, doesn't have enough depth to be interesting.

Light hazy straw. Served with a half inch white head. Strong citrus smell. Lemon. Flavor is Likewise strong, but not necessary in a good way: lemon and lemon pith. Grass, herbal. Strong bitterness seems out of place. Dry crisp mouth. Decent. Drinkable

A: blonde, clear, thin head, decent lacing

S: herbal and floral centennial hops are noteable, some background malts are evident a well

T: taste starts off bland with watered down malts with a slight bready character, bitter hops with bready finish

Mf: light body, medium to high carbonation

O: light and easy drinking, hops are present but not as great of a showcase of centennial as say founders centennial ipa

Figured I'd try it - something new.

A - a typical "beer yellow.."

S - Dull hops creapin through... Not a lot there

T - Didn't really care for it.. kind of a skunky/bitter feel to it. Unfortunately, it was preceded by a Double Jack, which probably didn't help matters...

M - Nothing special.. some carbonation...light bodied..

O - I tried it. Eh, probably won't go out of my way to order it again...

Served in an Onion shaker pint glass.

Based on last year's ReplicAle, but with a different malt bill. Right on. It pours a clear golden straw topped by a finger of staunch white froth. The nose definitely shows the effects of the single-hopping with Centennial: greens, light lemon zest, and some very light cilantro populate the scent. The taste brings these elements back for a reunion, along with some very light mandarin orange and an extremely light kiss of caramel and honey. After a while, though, the hops start to become a bit much, especially considering the weak malt backbone. The body is a hefty-feeling light, with a light moderate carbonation and a kinda dry finish. Overall, a pretty nice brew, but too one-sided for my complete liking.
