Simcoe Spring

The Beer Stats:
  • Beer Name: Simcoe Spring
  • Brewery: Peak Organic (Maine)
  • Style: Pale Ale
  • ABV: 5.4%
  • IBU: 66
  • Pour Color: A golden copper color that is easily seen thru




      This one was a darker straw color as it poured and left a nice head. The head would leave a nice island at the top and lacing all the way down. The simcoe comes through as a nice fruity scent. A citrus and pasion fruit scent are easy to smell. The feel in the mouth is light and smooth. The malts give a nice sweet flavor that just makes it easy drinking. A interesting pale. 
      I'm kinda blown away by this one. I like overly hopped or so dark you can't see thru it. This is neither of those. This is a nice spring offering that really gives a kick with simplicity. One hop really gives a lot of character in a beer I expected to be an average pale. It being by a organic brewery makes you think twice on what matters in brewing too!
