Magic Hat Wacko

Magic Hat Brewing Co. is located in the great state of Vermont and began production in 1994. Magic Hat is probably best known for Magic Hat #9, which is one of their year round brews, but they have several other year round brews including Circus Boy and Single Chair. They also have 4 seasonal brews including Fall: Hex, Winter: Howl, Spring: Vinyl, and Summer: Wacko.

Since it is in season I decided to try Wacko! The website states that Wacko is:

Summer: Wacko — The Liquid Song of Summer Wacko is the liquid song of summer: Crisp like the morning, cool like the evening and quenching all day long. Pop the top and set your summer loose. Wacko is a delicious summer beer with a big malty aroma, a subdued hop bite and a clean, slightly sweet finish. 

• TYPE: Summer Beer
• YEAST: English Ale
• HOPS: Apollo
• MALTS: Pale

I tried it and actually really enjoyed the beer. I am a big fan of Magic Hat #9 and I though that this tasted a lot like that.. in that it was crisp and easily drinkable. It is a great beer for a summer day or a backyard bbq. I would definitely drink it again.. plus the bottle label and the cap are really neat!
