It was the last night of our three weeks of intensive travel for work, and we found a nice seafood and steak place, the RiverHouse Reef & Grill, along the waterfront in Palmetto, Florida. It was a nice place to sit, relax in the sea breeze, enjoy the sunset and evening, and reflect back on the last three weeks.
The beer menu wasn’t huge, but since we can’t really get Yuengling in Illinois, and because it was on draft, I went for the traditional lager from “America’s Oldest Brewery” in Pottsville, PA.
The beer was a LIGHT amber color (you can’t tell here because of the back light) with a very thin head. Again, I was fighting off a travel cold, so my sense of smell wasn’t the best, but I did smell a faint aroma of a honey/caramel.
The body was light and refreshing, but it seemed a bit watery, as the carbonation didn’t seem to have much impact. My first taste was a bit sweet malt, like honey, which evolved to a slight grainy/caramel flavor. It was smooth and went down easy.
It went well with the remoulade sauce I had with my fish, but it was a little caramely for my mahi-mahi by itself. It’s light and watery, and would be a good one to grab after mowing the lawn. For some reason, I also thought this would be a good one to enjoy with popcorn while watching a movie at home.
