Harpoon Summer Beer by Harpoon Brewery
Onto beer #207 which is Harpoon Summer Beer from Harpoon Brewery from Boston, Massachusetts. This Kolsch had an ABV of 5.5%.
Look at that…I actually have a Harpoon glass to pour this into tonight. Thanks Cavie! Pale golden yellow, nice big fluffy white head (left some sweet lacing), and awesome carbonation bubbles made up the appearance. Lemons, grass, grains, and bread make up the nose of this clean smelling brew. Very bitter up front with that a lemon zest like flavor followed by some mellow grainy wheat flavors and then finishes up a bit dry with a tad more bitterness. Light bodied, low carbonation, and crisp make up the mouthfeel.
This isn’t my favorite style of beer and this did nothing to change my mind on that. I thought the best part of this was the nicest lacing it left on the glass. Now…where is my Jester…this is for him.
