Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the
NorCal Beer Blog's brew review.
Tonight’s featured beer is Lagunitas Brewing Company Equinox
- A Genuine Pale Oat Ale.
From the Lagunitas Brewing Company website: “A creamy,
pale oat ale hopped up with a huge charge of Equinox and Simcoe hops for a
piney, eucalyptus, cedar, sprucey, forest blast. First brewed in 1995... brewed
today in a time of change.”
Let’s get started!
Appearance: Pours
a clear copper color with a dense slightly off-white head and great lacing.
Aroma: Citrus,
pine, tropical and floral hops, sweet malts, oats and a touch bready.
Taste: Citrus,
pine, floral and some tropical hop flavors, oats, sweet pale malts, biscuits,
honey with a bit of a spicy finish.
Overall: Smooth,
silky and delicious, Lagunitas Brewing Company Equinox is impressive. This 8%
ABV offering is crisp and highly drinkable.
A great beer from one of my favorite breweries!
Cheers!
Mark Harvey
