I'm excited to say this is my first Wisconsin beer I am doing for this blog! I was getting some gas at a station near my house and I noticed they had a "Build your own six pack" thing inside. I thought this would be perfect to get me starting on posting more beers, so I loaded up an empty six pack and got back to my house as fast as I could to try one. I inevitably ended up picking the Sandcreek English Style Special Ale.
This beer poured a nice rusty, and very cloudy, red color with an equally nice, thick, tan head. The nose was dry and nutty and somewhat biscuity. The aroma of the hops was very mild compared to the taste which was spicy and almost perfume like (in a good way). The taste was similar to the nose but was a tad more bitter and for some reason less malty. This beer had a nice, thick mouthfeel but it also had a lot of sediment floating around which I didn't enjoy too much. Over all I had a pretty good first impression of this beer and am looking forward on seeing what else Sandcreek has to offer!
