3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 hayduke (3925) - Eureka, California, USA - MAR 13, 2015
This was from a half growler purchased from the growler station in Pauls Grocery in McCall, Idaho. In the glass was a dark amber looking almost brown . Raised a big beige head. Great lacing. The nose is a a rich roasted malt with a flora and citrus hops. Medium plus body and a nice creamy mouth feel. Flavor is a good balance of roasted malts and hops. The finish is dry and lightly bitter and the alcohol is well hidden Very nice.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 stevoj (3032) - Boise, Idaho, USA - JAN 24, 2015
Does not come off initially as very strong, faint malt aroma, dryness dominates.. Cloudy, dense amber body, small, but active beige soapy head, lots of lacing. Malt is most prevalent flavor, dry, chalky mouthfeel and finish. Easy to drink, alcohol warmth is very subtle and slowly warming. Take some time with this one.
