Foster's Premium Ale. 5.5% abv. 18 IBU. Gold-amber color. Thick bubbly head with good retention and some lace. Faint aroma of malt with muted hops. Flavors of malt, roasted grain, some corn. Thin-medium body. Mouthfeel is lukewarm, sticky, bubbly. Aftertaste is mild hops, bready, yeasty, dry.

At the pour, this ale was better than expected. However, it lacks character and complexity, and the nose becomes off-putting as the temp drops, with emerging notes of cooked veggies and canned corn. Not a terrible brew, but not something I’ll be revisiting anytime soon.

From the brewery:

"It’s brilliant copper appearance sits beneath an enormously foamy head. A nicely balanced maltiness accentuated by rich caramel notes and a slightly sweet character. Foster’s Premium Ale is a 5.5 alcohol volume ale with a brilliant copper color that delivers a rich, earthy beer-drinking experience with a smooth caramel finish."
