Mountain Goat Steam Ale

Time to revisit an old classic.

In all honesty I wasn't sure how this would fare.. been drinking some good solid beers since first encountering this one early in my craft career. Pleasingly however it holds up quite well indeed for what it is, with a nice snowy head and light body, pleasant wheat malt nose, and fizzy .

At this point on first encounter you're likely expecting (fearing) lager town. But it moves above that with a nice english malt and barley tea like character, rounded flavours.

Not world changing but a fine entry beer into craft, and a perennially drinkable light session beer in the style. 7.5
