Achives: Market Street Brewing 6/29/98

Market Street Brewing
Corning, NY
Mon. 6/29/98, 12:45pm
[open]

House Brews:
Nut Brown Ale (B) 4.4%
Red Ale 4.6%
Old English Ale (out) 6.5%
Lager 4.6%
Pale Ale 5.0%
Blackberry Lager 4.6%
Anniversary/Oktoberfest (J) 7.1%

Nut Brown: More like nut black. Thin head, quickly gone. A faintly hoppy aroma. Good body. Very well blended flavor. Malts predominately chocolate. Hops gently tickle the throat on the way down. The malt flavor remains pleasantly in the mouth after swallowing. Has many attractive porter characteristics. For the lightest-weight beer offered, it is high in character. 8.7

Anniversary Ale: A medium to light colored beer with a slightly hoppy aroma. Not much of a head. This has an interesting and complex taste. It starts off with the malt predominating, then you get a fruity taste that appears along with the hops. It leaves a nice tickle going down. Although the beer is 7.1% ABV and fairly hoppy (IBU 25), it does not taste overpowering. It is a well-balanced, tasty and interesting beer. Well done! 8.6

Red Ale (sample): No head. Reddish brown color (contains chocolate malt). Faintly malty aroma. Also faintly fruity. Body slightly lighter than other beers tried. Light flavor but complex. Also well blended. Thirst quenching. 8.2
