Big Drop Brewing Co - Pine Trail
Big Drop, a brewery in England's largest city in Suffolk County, is on a mission to make beers so flavorful that you don't miss the alcohol. A few weeks ago, they featured the Milk Stout(Kevin Tastes: #16 Big Drop Brewing Co - Galactic Milk Stout).
This Big Drop Brewing Co - Pine Trail Pale Ale has another rich addition of malts and hops. The beer is quite bitter yet slightly sweet and has only 56 kcal per can. Because of the American hop varieties used, the whole is fruity and tropical with flavors like orange, papaya and rose (the flower). The beer is fresh and permeable due to a slight fruit acidity that makes the beer come across as lime juice.
The flavor of the beer lingers long in the mouth and remains somewhat bitter and fruity, a good thirst quencher in the summer. These hop aromas and flavors are also well preserved thanks to the canned packaging, something Big Drop uses with all its beers
Gluten-free alcohol-free beer
Cheers
