Mikkeller Help American Pale Ale at 4.6% ABV (C$5.30 at Sherbrooke Liquor, 330 ml, best before 21-Sep-2018, acquired 25-Apr-2018, reviewed 24-May-2018)
Appearance: hazy medium gold with one finger of pale ivory head diminishing gradually to a thin persistent cap, stringy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: citrus, pale malt, light resiny pine, floral. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium-light slightly creamy body, moderate carbonation, off-dry slightly astringent lingering bitter finish. (4/5)
Not the most thrilling Mikkeller I’ve ever had… but then again, it’s not the least. Actually, it’s not even the most thrilling Mikkeller APA I’ve had. Nor, again, is it the least. I think “unremarkable” is what I’m going for here. It support charity, though, so there’s that. (14/20)
