Thornbridge Brewery General Sherman
General Sherman commands attention as a bold Imperial American Amber Ale, pouring a majestic mahogany. Drawing inspiration from its West Coast roots, this high-gravity beer boasts booming aromatic waves of tropical papaya and mango, backed by a robust caramelized malt backbone. On the palate, it delivers a complex and resinous charge of pine, sweet apricot, and bitter orange marmalade. Its rich, full body is balanced by an assertive bitterness and a subtle, warming finish. This is an elevated, imperial take on the classic style, delivering intense hop character integrated with a decadent specialty malt profile.
Appearance. Deep mahogany color with reddish-copper highlights and brilliant clarity. Tops with a thick, frothy, light-tan head that exhibits excellent retention and leaves dense, persistent lacing.
Aroma. High intensity. Dominated by vibrant West Coast hop notes of ripe papaya, mango, and resinous pine. This rich fruitiness is supported by a moderately strong caramel malt character, showing light toastiness and a subtle, clean alcohol sweetness.
Taste. Begins with deep caramel and toasted malt sweetness, which is quickly balanced by bold flavors of apricot and bitter orange marmalade. A prominent, resinous pine hop flavor takes over the mid-palate, supported by a firm hop bitterness. Finishes medium-dry with a lingering interplay of piney hops, citrus peel, and clean warmth.
Mouthfeel. Full body with a rich, velvety, and smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate. Displays a noticeable, well-integrated alcohol warmth that is smooth and free of harshness or astringency.
