Lagunitas - Censored Rich Copper Ale

"Life is uncertain. Don't sip."

Our fifth beer on our tour of the Western U.S. is Lagunitas Censored Rich Copper Ale purchased at Vintage Estates.


"The original name of this original ale was originally derived from an origin so heinous that we cannot reveal its aboriginal oregeny. Sorry." The net contents are 12 fl oz of malt, hops, yeast, and water. This beer is from Petaluma, California, is 1.065 OG and 6.75% ABV.

Overall average rating: 5.7/10

The beer pours a amber/copper color with a white head. The aroma is a light citrus hop as well as being richly sweet. The taste has a side tongue bite with some back tongue lingering. It is crisp and refreshing as well as smooth and sweet with a hop finish.

Shawn- The flavors don't develop as much as I'd like, but it is very refreshing. It's an above average hot day beer, 6/10.
Angela- It's an okay beer. I don't find it particularly memorable, but it is a good sessionable beer, 5.5/10.
Chris- It says it's rich, but it's only really rich in the sweetness. It's more of an amber ale from the look and smell, 5.5/10.
