3 Sons Brewing Co. Festbier
Cloudy, yellow-gold-amber, with a yeasty, porcine head. Finger O’ God lacing aspirationally pointing skyward, then back at Adam with accusation. Bread dough nose shows yeasty influence, but softly comforts an anticipated fest. Orange zest and lemon too, pepper the nose, as does white pepper and cardamom. Wake revelers! Clove is afoot like a cloven hoof! Brown sugar wheat bread crust, Bold entry o’ the goat does not disappoint, indeed, he has inspired this wyld Satyre!

Spiced tea orange body blooms a smoke stained mane of energy dispensed to dusk dune reflections; then wisps. Orange zested dark breads, a touch of white pepper, grain husks, and bee pollen on the nose. Incredibly weighted in terms of bitter and sweet interplay. Lemon emerges, clove flower, hibiscus tea, orange pekoe, sweet tea, tea biscuit. Delightful.

Great pumpkin offering as usual! Pie crust and pumpkin pie spice offering on the nose to appease the gourds; orange pekoe celestial reflections. Cinnamon stick whittled for whipping, and nutmegs just made for licking. Great taste for a knife carved face of caramelized pumpkin! Naysayers be slain. Haters haunted, Geeks begouled, Smarms smitten. How else can you mark the seasons in Florida? Bring on the jacked-up-juices! #halloween #pumpkin #pumpkinbeer #dogfishhead #dogfishheadpumpkinbeer #dogfishheadpunkinale #punkinale #seasonalbeer #gourdbrew #iwillslapyouintothanksgivingifyousmacktalkjack — 3 years ago

White capped drop to cirrus clouds and white crayon dogs over a golden amber pool. Oily lacing slips into obscurity, undeciphered. Tangerine and lemon oils confront grapefruit and cashew on the nose. Light clove and blood orange emerge in golden lemon zest on the palate. The bread-y center reads as sourdough, and plays peek-a-boo with razor thin toffee creme.

Quick beige head, then just halo. Arabesque lacing. Cinnamon and nutmeg on toasted brioche, graham cracker, ginger snap nose. Deconstructs quickly to a bread-y and lovely marzen with brown sugar, malt sugar viscosity buoying, and light lemon and orange peel fixings. Gorgeous and so in step with the seasonality.

One of my favorite breweries in the south. I know, I know, Sweetwater in Atlanta’s great and all, but Crooked Can outta Orlando is something else.

Their seasonal Oktoberfest pictured on the right hits all the right Autumn notes.

Purple Cow to the left of that has got nice açaí, blueberry, and licorice notes.

Down the line, the Pia Kawa is a perfect tart pineapple sipper.

Finally, the Mellow Step, probably the favorite of the flight, has got the perfect amount of hops balanced with a saltwater taffy mango afternote.

Jumping, pink marshmallow fez says au revoir, and poof. Slick, fake Santa beard lacing drops like a kid’s dream to orange semi-translucent puck, and appropriate foam smirk. This beer ‘looks’ pumpkin. The nose is cinnamon-allspice, and expected clove; a sweet brown sugar note waves from the corner. Cinnamon-sugar opens across the palate with a cream soda feel. Lemon zest ties the spice together into a lemoncello grip when it finally deciphers the malt and sugar message. There is a cola element throughout, which, in conjunction with the lemon, delivers a very refreshing and familiar comfort. Quite nice for the dwindling dog days of Florida summer! Poolside Pumpkin!

Darker-than-expected amber, off-white pate, negative photo of space. Paisley lacing. Beautiful nose of ruby grapefruit, cut pineapple and tangerine in the seams. Bursting from the glass! Like a pure tangerine first sip. The finish brings the beer aspects, with bitter hop popping in the background, Meyer lemon and lime zest, with orange flavors zipping.

I love the Jelly series of Berliner Weiss that Swamphead comes up with and this one is no exception, so fruity and tart with a nice citrus kick from the orange! Very unique beer. — 4 years ago
