What’s a blonde ale? Who should I recommend it to?
Blonde ales are popular around the world, and generally have a light color, medium body, and light sweetness.
In general, if someone asks for “a beer” or asks for a popular light beer on draft (Bud light, Coors light, etc.), they will probably be happy with a blonde ale like Old Ohio.
What’s an IPA? How can I describe Legitimate Swells?
An IPA (India Pale Ale) is a style of beer that is heavy on hops, which tends to make them both bitter and floral. Legitimate Swells features both of these.
What’s a Hefeweizen?
A Hefeweizen is a wheat beer which is unfiltered, leaving some of the brewing yeast still in it. This gives it a hazy appearance and slight bitterness.
What taste notes does Oastweizen have?
Banana and clove.
Which was the first Twin Oast beer brewed?
Oastweizen.
What is a porter?
Porters are dark beers, similar to stouts, which were first brewed in London in the early 18th century.
They typically have a heavy feel, aided by the very low carbonation.
Give some taste notes for the Ship Burner.
