Beer Review: Hop Trial Schlafly Barbe Rouge (One Time Release)

From the Hop Trial Pack of Schlafly comes the Barbe Rouge, a single malted single hopped Golden Ale that highlights this French hop of origin. Described as floral and fruity in nature, there was not much missing of these qualities in this beer. The standout note was that of a strawberry and the beer itself proved to be one that could easily be downed without a second thought. My Untappd rating on this one comes in at a 4 and was definitely one that was well worth drinking.

Beer Review: Hop Trial Schlafly Perle (One Time Release)

Back with another one of the Hop Trial beers from Schlafly – The Saint Louis Brewery, this is Perle. A single malt single hopped Golden Ale featuring this German hop of origin which is now also grown here in America. Known to be somewhat of a spicy hop, this was picked up for me in the delivery of the beer. However a second quality that is also to be displayed is that of a minty one which wasn’t much to speak of at the time, and was kind of faint in the background. Color was good though and some nice lacing did take place as the beer worked down the glass. As for flavor, there was a nice quality to the beer which had a refreshing and floral character. Moving to my Untappd scale…Chalk this one up as a 3.75 for me, and if on Untappd then feel free to connect so I can see what you’re drinking too. Same as here, can friend request to Rodjbeerventures…Cheers!

Beer Review: Schlafly Hop Trial Ella (One Time Release)

Hop Trial: Ella from Schlafly Beer is part of their series dedicated to the tasting of individual hops which started a couple of years ago. It is a Golden Ale single malted and single hopped, the goal is to allow the drinkers to taste and enjoy the hop identified which in this case is the Australian Ella. For me, I found this beer to actually perform pretty decently, the appearance was solid and it held well on the flavor and aroma. The beer proved to be a nice palatable experience as the floral qualities of the hop came through nicely, more so than the also noted fruity notes that one should experience. Unfortunately, the beers are not for individual sale as they are part of a specialty series only introduced in 12 packs. But if you happen to see it and there will be new ones here for 2018, then it may be well worth picking up to experience which ever hop is highlighted. My score for this one an 82 and found it to be a tasty enough brew.
