Lawson's Finest Liquids Above the Clouds

Aroma delivers light cracker-like malt with touches of corn and perfumed floral hops. In the flavor, mild tangerine and lemon join the hop notes; just a wisp of bitterness, with a green-bean vegetal note. Fairly clean finish, lingering on a citrus memory.

Aroma: “Dank, piney, and earthy hops aromas with hints of onion, cheese, garlic, and green pepper. There’s a moderate lemon citrus and floral rose note mixed with bready malt and honey.” Flavor: “Hops-forward with mostly lemon and rose. There’s more tea-like hops in the flavor as well. Mouth- coating, dank hoppy finish that is both bitter and slightly astringent. Floral, slightly fruity.” Overall: “Kind of old school hops character built around a very light malt bill. The hops are a bit overwhelming to the beer, especially in the bitterness and harshness of the finish. A bit too heavy-handed to want more than a few ounces. More focus on late additions and dry hopping, with more fruit character than bitterness, would make it more attractive.”

Floral, herbal hop aroma with low, cracker-like malt; slight orange notes. In the flavor, Wonderbread-crust biscuit malt nicely balanced by light touch of hop-bitterness. Light notes peach, orange, pear. Dry, clean finish. Very good drinkability.
