4.05/5  rDev +13.1%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4

From an undated 12 fl. oz. bottle. Sampled on July 9, 2012. It pours a medium to dark amber that could also be classified as golden bronze with a smallish head that fades after a few moments. The aroma oozes sweetness with dark malts, nuts, and a low profile hop ester. The body is medium and smooth. The taste is of sweet caramel upfront with a low to medium bitterness taking up the tail. The bitterness seems to evolve as the beer warms. This was an easy to drink, likable beer.

Into a pilsener:

A: hazy red/orange body with a one finger white head, super light lacing is left

S: light apples, caramel malts, sugar

T: sweet through previously mentioned flavors

M: light to medium, sessionable, sweet sticky aftertaste, dry sticky finish, adequate carbonation

O: glad I was finally able to find it again recently as its been a long time since I`ve had it, but it was better back then, for now I`m thinking its good for the style, and good for me, might have again depending upon what else was served, possibly look for fresher next time .... somehow...hmmmm ???

Poured from bottle into tulip. Pours a copper amber color with a foamy head, dissapears quick with some lacing.
Really nice malty dried fruit aromas...almost "bock" like. Taste is just like it smells..malty, dried fruit and bock flavors. Its actually really nice.
Heavy mouthfeel, smooth, and good aftertaste. Slightly macro tease, but overall a nice brew.

This is a sturdy, well made, no-frills amber lager that is similar in stature and yet more approachable than a Sam Adams Boston Lager. Beautiful, clear, amber color, warm malt flavors and a slight hoppy finish are a fitting tribute to the storied fishermen of "Glostah". Overall, this is a nice beer and deserves a spot in any New England beer collection.
