Bridgeport Blue Heron

Got me some Bridgeport Blue Heron in a bottle. It's a pale ale, but is more amber colored than most. It has a clean favor, and something of a copper note. The finish is mild, with a fairly thin body. It has some warmth and depth to the flavor, which grows on you. It has good repeat drinkability. This is a good, workmanlike pale ale. It is nothing too special, nothing too ambitious, but nothing jarring or unpleasant either, and with just enough complexity and character to keep you interested. It is not a very challenging beer. It is also a beer you could get into rut with.

WDTB? Beer coniseurs who wish to relax, palate wise. People who like good beer, but shop at Costco (food mega mart). People who live in Portland.

If you have friends who come over who aren't major beer heads and you feel bad serving them macros, keep this beer on hand. An introductory level microbrew.

WSDTB? People who are just getting into beer.

Rating: 7.5/10
