Episode # 361: Bloom
As May wraps up and summer begins to ramp up with the heat, Dan revisits the Maibock, Bloom, from Torch and Crown.
Torch & Crown Brewing Company Bloom
STYLE: Maibock
ABV: 6.6%
IBU: N/A
AVAILABILITY: 16 oz. cans/Draft (Seasonal)
Stats above taken from the brewery’s can and website.
Appearance
Dark gold/amber in color with a fluffy, white head.
Aroma
Delicate blend of bread/dough and fruit on the nose almost verging on cherry waffle.
Taste
Flaky bread leads on the palate with the fruitiness taking a back seat with a slight earthy/herbal hop bitterness on the finish.
Mouthfeel
Moderate weight, body, and mouthfeel with the carbonation keeping the balance in check.
Overall
Bloom is a welcome seasonal beer, helping me mentally transition from the colder months into the warmer ones. This is super food-friendly for sure, and would pair with a great many dishes, but chicken or other lighter meats in various preparations would work best, I think.
Cheers and remember:
Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
All music on this show came to us from the now defunct Music Alley.
Intro: “Meet Me At The Bar” by The Beer Drinking Fools
Outtro: “Bubblegum and Beer” by The Supersuckers
