Closure Ale: Review

Greenbush Brewing Company
5.9% abv
40 IBU
$9.99 a six pack

Greenbushbrewing.com – Grains: 2 row, Munich, Crystal 60L, Gambrinus honey malts, white wheat malt.
Apollo Hops
British-style Ale yeast

Appearance: a hazy deep amber body with a two finger head that leaves some lacing on the glass.

Aroma: overall, light to me; touch of sweetness yet earthy malts, lightly hoppy – faint floral; as the ale warms a nice tropical note appears which does not transfer to the taste

Flavors and Mouthfeel: earthy grains, sweet nondescript malts, grassy feel, light floral on the back, moderate bitterness, acidic, moderate-low fizzy carbonation, sharp sea grass aftertaste or pine needle feel, medium-full bodied Pale Ale,

To the Point: solid earthy profile with a firm bitter style with a hint of sweetness,
