The Establishment Brewing Company Mass Appeal – American Pale Ale at 4.8% ABV (C$4.95 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 26-Jun-2024, acquired 10-Jul-2024, reviewed 11-Jul-2024)
Appearance: hazy pale straw with one finger of fine white head, excellent retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: coconut, tropical fruit, citrus, white grape must, cereal grains. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry short duration finish. (4/5)
The aroma is maybe just slightly mild, but for the weight I’ll give it a pass, especially given the nicely layered complexity it exhibits. Overall it’s easy-drinking, with an off-dry finish verging on short, and an almost tart edge. As usual, The Establishment does not fail to deliver. (16/20)
This will be my 5,865th unique Untappd check-in.
8/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
