833. Saranac Pomegranate Wheat
I had this beer at The Tavern in Central Square at Kevin's thesis defense party on June 20th.
Beer Stats:
Brewery: Matt Brewing Company
Alcohol: 4.70%
Serving: Bottle, 12 oz.
Style: Fruit Beer, BJCP Style Guide
Appearance: 3.5 | Smell: 3.0 | Taste: 3.0 | Mouthfeel: 3.5 | Drinkability: 3.5
Overall: 3.2
Pours a cloudy golden with a reddish tint. Topped by a thick, bright white head that fades to a film leaving patchy lace. The aroma is grainy with a hint of grassiness and a light pomegranate note that becomes stronger and a bit syrupy on swirling.
Sweet pomegranate upfront and throughout. The finish is grainy with not a lot of bitterness. Too sweet overall. Smooth, low carbonation and light-bodied.
Too sweet, but the pomegranate flavor is nice.
