250th Beer – Old Speckeled Hen Beer Review

I belong to a Beer Club at my local watering hole – Sidelines Bar and Grill – And finally last evening I reached the 250th Beer on my Beer Tasting List – It took some time to complete – I has been over 3 years for me to get to this point.

I have to give this beer a 4.5 out of 5 on my rating system – First this beer is from a can but it was a nitrogenated can system after opening this beer and pouring into pint glass I was given a beautiful creamy head that reached all the way to the top of the glass and leaving a cascading pattern as it settled into the glass.

Upon taking in its aroma the beer gave off a nice sweet smell. Then Upon the first taste I have to say this was wonderful taste – Creamy, somewhat sweet with just a hint of bitterness. This beer is not at all heavy this is a very nice easy to drink beer with just a little bitter aftertaste which was not bad at all. This beer is rated at a 5.2% ABV. I would say this is a very drinkable beer – Good flavor, beautiful golden copper color. Good overall drinking beer. Would be good when you want something not too heavy and a light balanced taste.
