G5 Brewing Company Cowboy Competition
What the brewers say
“We fancy ourselves as modern-day cowboys.”
What our panel thought
“Bright, floral aroma with a healthy dose of honey and corn. Grainy, cracker-like on the nose. Corn-flake flavor with a hint of pear blossoms. Full-bodied but with a semi-crisp finish. Herbal hops add complexity, but let the sweetness grab the stage.”
What our editors thought
“Very subtle tropical hops notes in the nose feel unusual, but they’re so dialed-back that they don’t distract. They resurface in the flavor, supplanting the very light malt and highlighting the acidity.”
